Doing the right thing for everyone else whether they are friend, foe, pure blood, half blood, mudblood or muggle because the right choice is never the easy one. A whole group of characters have shown this quality within themselves. Even though it started out for Harry as a means of pure survival, as we watched him mature, he grew into understanding that Tom Riddle was a threat to everyone wizard and muggle alike. In this understanding, which grew to an apex in The Half Blood Prince; we see him turn away from Hogwarts, his home and from many aspects he has grown to relish in away from the Dursleys so he may finish what Albus Dumbledore had started before Harry had even been born. He grew into a young man that understood that there was something much bigger than him and that sacrifices must be made to preserve freedom and quell the world of servitude Voldemort would create. With this he inspired many characters and many readers and fans. Harry Potter means that these ideas persevere in a time when some would say that the world is leaning toward the greedy and power hungry. Even if these ideas are from a fictitious source we witness how it endures in the hearts and minds of so many fans.
