Up to this point DD has been teaching Harry lessons in modern-day Stoic philosophy - learn to use reason over emotion.  LV taps into emotion and uses it against his foes.  In this speech isn't DD calling for all to use emotion - the very thing that gives LV power?  I'm confused.                 Olive H.

Perhaps DD is just making them aware that life is not fair; and that some things are worth fighting for.  Or as Sirius said, worth dying for.  I wonder if he was thinking of Lily when he said that?
