What is easy and what is right....

I've been thinking as I've waded through most of the postings, and
something DD said has 
been buzzing in my ears, and I've not seen anyone post on it, though
I do admit my eyes 
have blurred many times reading all these great posts on HBP.  
DD told Harry (and all hogwarts students) at the speech at the end of
GOF the time was 
coming when he'd have to choose between what was easy and what was
right.

"Remember Cedric.  Remember, if the time should come when you have to
make a choice 
between what is right and what is easy, remember what happened to a
boy who was good, 
and kind, and brave, because he strayed accross the path of Lord
Voldemort." (GOF, p. 724 
american version)
 
I'm thinking  that Harry, in using Snape's old text, took the easy
path, and found out too late 
the consequences of his action.  Anyone care to comment, add examples
with other 
characters?

11-month old Harry of her 
own.
