I agree and as I was just rereading Chamber of Secrets (part of the 
frenzied interpretation of the Book 6 clues), I have another example 
which had slipped my mind.  Despite all the problems in his own life, 
when Sir Nearly Headless Nick happens to mention his disappointment 
about not getting into the Headless Hunt, Harry is moved to say "I 
wish there was something I could do to help".  And it's not just the 
standard politeness, he actually goes (with Ron & Hermione) to the 
ghost's feast, passing up a much more fun party - all this 
unselfishly for someone who isn't even alive.  There's absolutely 
nothing in it for him.

In fact all three of the main trio have this quality, think of all 
the efforts they make for Hagrid's various nutty creatures, despite 
not even agreeing with him about them.
