No matter where you go, there you are

Secretly, both Uriel, Harry, and all other characters are all the same person!  And that person is Jim, who will sometimes reuse phrases that he likes.

As Uriel said, you are a soul; you have a body. (I think that's the exact line, but I didn't look it up). It was in response to Harry saying that the events of Ghost Story taught him at least one thing for sure, that you "have a soul."

--- End quote ---

That is exactly right," you are a soul, you have a body.."   Which is tied up in your humanity, so Mab who was human once has lost almost all of her soul as the Winter Queen.. 

raidem:
Well for me, I believe the IdHarry from Fool Moon arose partly from some future timeline where that "no matter where you go, there you are" has some temporal/alternate dimension meanings.  I believe Uriel, by virtue of the fact that IdHarry used same exact phrase in a dreamscape looking like a future Harry, is hinting that there are temporal shenanigans in store for Harry.  And Harry will have some understanding from this phrase on one of his time travels.

Added circumstantial evidence of a temporal/alternate dimension link for the phrase is Harry's reference to Buckaroo Banzai, a movie about travel to an alternate dimension to stop alien invaders from conquering Earth.

morriswalters:
In Ghost story, IMO, Uriel in effect told him exactly where he was going when he passed on.  Which was what Harry was asking him.
