Half-Blood Prince, Chapter 28 ("Flight of the Prince"):
"Kill me then," panted Harry, who felt no fear at all, but only rage and contempt. "Kill me like you killed him, you coward--"
"DON'T--" screamed Snape, and his face was suddenly demented, inhuman, as though he was in as much pain as the yelping, howling dog stuck in the burning house behind them-- "CALL ME COWARD!"

Order of the Phoenix, Chapter 23:
"It's not my own neck I'm saving," said Harry tersely, tugging the trunk over a patch of particularly uneven, moth-eaten carpet right in front of the door.
"Oh I see," said Phineas Nigellus, still stroking his beard." This is no cowardly flight-- you are being noble."
