"All we wizard-raised magicals, no matter whether we’re Death Eaters or "Light’ wizards, believe in our hearts that by letting Muggle-borns enter our world, that we’ve rescued them. Right? We all feel that if it weren’t for us, the Muggle-borns would all be stuck walking behind a plough for the rest of their lives. Then when the Muggle-borns do come to our world, how do the rest of us magicals, us wizard-raised magicals, see them? We see them as nuisances, because they don’t know anything at first. The Death Eaters want to kill the nuisances; or at least, send them back to the nonmagical world. Those of us on the "Light’ side might befriend the Muggle-borns and we might teach them—but always, we pity them on some level. I can remember looking at Lily and thinking, "Just think how much more you could be achieving now, if you’d grown up in a magical family.’ "
