I can't BELIEVE that this wasn't even a choice! The self sacrifice 
theme is rampant throughtout all five books. Clearly Lord Thingy 
has it not in the slightest, nor do the Slytherins  (see Phineas 
Nigellus' comments that Slitherins are all self serving by nature), 
Harry Potter has it in great quantities, and if not for Lily's self 
sacrifice before page one is written the HP series would have been 
called.

I'd say self sacrifice is love put to action. Isn't it one of the 
many ways true love manifests itself?
