He didn't want Professor Quirrel / Lord Voldemort to get hold of the philosopher's stone. This particular lie didn't help much; Lord Voldemort was fairly good at detecting lies.

Why does a face look wonky in a mirror but not in real life?

the mirror doesn't lie and sometimes you actually look more wonky than you lie to yourself that you do. But if you want to know what you look like to others, arrange two plane mirrors at an angle of 90o to each other. Now, when you look in it you will 'see yourself as others do'. You may prove this assertion by holding up to the mirror a piece of text. In an ordinary mirror, the text is reversed. In the mirror pair, there is total reflection, and you'll be able to read the text!
