Hickengruendler:

I agree with this. IMO, the crucial moment in the Pensieve chapter, 
regarding Snape's character, was when he told Phineas Nigellus not to 
call Hermione a Mudblood. Because this did show a change of heart. It 
started solely with his wish, to keep Lily safe, no matter what 
happened to everyone else. But it changed into more, and into a Snape, 
whose principals at least somewhat changed.
