Considering Harry's capabilities, just wanting him to be more powerful seems like a very risky course. Quirrel presumably wants Harry to do something Quirrel wants that Quirrel can't do himself.

I think Quirrel wants to rule from behind the throne.

That only works when you can control the king.

I don't think this new prophecy is going to make his day.

Yeah. That's what I think. Quirrel is in for a very unpleasant suprise, and is probably going to be permanently sacrificed by Harry at some point.
