If Quirrell got burnt when he wanted to hurt Harry, why didn’t others? I mean was this power Harry had from his mother mentioned in any other situation? Or did Lily's sacrifice just work for Voldemort and Quirrell died because of Voldermort?

          This is explained by Dumbledore when he visits Harry in the Hospital Wing after the confrontation with Quirrel:




          “But why couldn’t Quirrell touch me?”



          “Your mother died to save you. If there is one thing Voldemort cannot
          understand, it is love. He didn’t realize that love as powerful as
          your mother’s for you leaves its own mark. Not a scar, no visible
          sign ... to have been loved so deeply, even though the person who
          loved us is gone, will give us some protection forever. It is in your
          very skin. Quirrell, full of hatred, greed, and ambition, sharing his
          soul with Voldemort, could not touch you for this reason. It was
          agony to touch a person marked by something so good.”




          From the words I bolded it seems that the burning effect was unique to Quirrel/Voldemort because they were so full of hatred. It sounds like it was specifically the clash of hatred and love that produced the burning effect.
