And Voldemort qualifies extravagantly for acts of evil.
伏地魔毫無節制地作惡多端。
He has killed not out of self-defense, not to protect not for any of the reasons that we might all be able to envisage or most of us could envisage ourselves killing in certain extreme situations.

And, yes, at the end of the book you have a clash of two utterly, utterly different again, for want of a better word, souls.

And this very...This flawed, vulnerable, damaged and yet still fighting, still loving still daring to love and daring to hope, soul, which is Harry.
而另一個靈魂，那有瑕疵的、脆弱的、受傷的靈魂還依然在斗爭著、在愛著，依然敢愛、敢希望的靈魂，這就是哈利。
