What does anyone make of Quirrel's claim to be David Monroe?

It means that it's confirmed that Quirrell wants people to think he's secretly David Monroe. I'd be wary of drawing any other conclusions, though it does seem more likely that Quirrell pretended to be Monroe during the war.

Do you mean in general, or in Chapter 92?

Comment author: NancyLebovitz 04 July 2013 07:30:59PM 1 point [-]

In Chapter 92.

I have no theories yet. I did, however, just come across the following in my re-reading (chapter 60):

The Defense Professor's eyes were still in shadow, dark pits that could not be met. "Call it a whim, Mr. Potter. It has sometimes amused me to play the part of a hero. Who knows but that You-Know-Who would say the same."
