Correct Answer:
Salazar Slytherin
 
     
 
Answer and reasoning: Salazar Slytherin

One of four-one of the four founders of Hogwarts school of witchcraft and wizardry

History and Secrets, I buried them low and deep-much information found in Hogwarts: A History, plus Hogwarts is a very historical school and Slytherin lived many years in the past. He created the Chamber of Secrets, without telling the other founders. Low and deep-the chamber is deep underground.

Listened, Spoke, Disagreed, Left-He and his ideas conflicted with the other founders, and after much debate (listening, speaking, diagreeing) he left the school.

If you heard me speak you may not understand-he was a parseltongue, speaking the language of snakes, which an average person would not understand.

I hope I'm right! I think it all makes sense. smile

"Brilliant," said Hermione. "This isn't magic-it's logic-a puzzle. A lot of the greatest wizards haven't got an ounce of logic."

Ahhh, someone guessed before I could put in an answer...but it was all too easy anyway. blaugh
 
     
 
Yuppers. .Herms. got my answer too. xD
     
'Ella Rosier's questing for Kottan Bell & Reve Rouille. Help moi?
Yeah, Herms stole my answer too. XD

But I think it's right. If it's not, i'm not sure what is.
 
     
     
 
Ahh, I figured someone would get it fast. I just copy-pasted from a site.

Pass that Chronic. WHAT? Cles of Narnia.
I really love random comments and PMs. Send them to me.
Good job Herms. I'm trying to think up a riddle to post, but I feel like everyone I would want to do would be too easy. Also school is keeping me massively busy. Maybe soon though.

RIDDLE

Years and years I have spent
Sitting, letting time wind
I know what you might represent
I know what's in your mind
I have seen people come and go
Take heed and hear my advice
I know who might be friend or foe
A simple thought will suffice
So listen what I have to say
You might not see me again
I will help you along your way
My, what a pleasure it's been



Good luck!

Tom Riddle's diary?
     
Hmm I'm thinking that it's the Sorting Hat.

Reasoning:
Years and years I have spent
Sitting, letting time wind
: It's really old, going back to the founders of Hogwarts.
I know what you might represent: It places students into houses.
I know what's in your mind
: Ditto
I have seen people come and go: Again, it's old so it has seen a lot of students.
Take heed and hear my advice
I know who might be friend or foe
A simple thought will suffice
: It decides where to put you based on your thoughts
So listen what I have to say
: See above
You might not see me again
I will help you along your way
: It provided the sword for Harry, and also places students in the house that will help them most in their lives.
My, what a pleasure it's been

I didn't do all the lines because they are kind of redundant, but I think it fits pretty well.
