From 93:
The Defense Professor watched them both, the woman and the crying boy. His eyes were very cold, and very calculating.
He did not think that this would be enough.
Woop. There goes that theory :-).
First time I read that, I interpreted it as "it would not be enough to prevent Harry from tearing the world apart". But there is another possible interpretation : if we consider that Quirrelmort was trying to turn Harry dark, and killing Hermione was part of that plan, then we can interpret it completely to the opposite : the killing Hermione won't be enough to turn Harry dark.
I don't give a high probability to the second interpretation, but it does stand on its own feet.
