Evil Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Evil

1.
There is no explanation for evil. It must be looked upon as a necessary part of the order of the universe. To ignore it is childish, to bewail it senseless.
Maugham, W. Somerset

2.
He who passively accepts evil is as much involved in it as he who helps to perpetrate it.
King Jr. Martin Luther

Evil comes at leisure like the disease. Good comes in a hurry like the doctor.
Chesterton, Gilbert K.

Evil is something you recognize immediately you see it: it works through charm.
Masters, Brian

It is bitter to lose a friend to evil, before one loses him to death.
Mary Renault

There surely is in human nature an inherent propensity to extract all the good out of all the evil.
Haydon, Benjamin

7.
Life is neither good or evil, but only a place for good and evil.
Aurelius, Marcus

8.
My mother's obsession with the good scissors always scared me a bit. It implied that somewhere in the house there lurked: the evil scissors.
Martin, Tony

They that know no evil will suspect none.
Jonson, Ben

There can be no existence of evil as a force to the healthy-minded individual.
James, William

Overcome evil with good. [St. Paul]]
Bible

12.
All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing.
Edmund Burke

Some people show evil as a great racehorse shows breeding. They have the dignity of a hard chancre.
Hemingway, Ernest

14.
To rid ourselves of our shadows -- who we are -- we must step into either total light or total darkness. Goodness and evil.
Johnson, Jeremy P.

15.
All evil is like a nightmare; the instant you stir under it, the evil is gone.
Carlyle, Thomas

16.
Evil brings men together.
Aristotle

17.
Submit to the present evil, lest a greater one befall you.
Phaedrus

18.
Evil is neither suffering nor sin; it is both at the same time, it is something common to them both. For they are linked together; sin makes us suffer and suffering makes us evil, and this indissoluble complex of suffering and sin is the evil in which we are submerged against our will, and to our horror.
Weil, Simone

19.
Nature, more of a stepmother than a mother in several ways, has sown a seed of evil in the hearts of mortals, especially in the more thoughtful men, which makes them dissatisfied with their own lot and envious of another s.
Erasmus, Desiderius

20.
Evil, and evil spirits, devils and devil possession, are the outgrowth of man's inadequate consciousness of God. We must avoid thinking of evil as a thing in itself-a force that works against man or, against God, if you will.
Butterworth, Eric

21.
I know indeed what evil I intend to do, but stronger than all my afterthoughts is my fury, fury that brings upon mortals the greatest evils.
Euripides

22.
The evil of the world is made possible by nothing but the sanction you give it.
Ayn Rand

23.
No evil is without its compensation. The less money, the less trouble; the less favor, the less envy. Even in those cases which put us out of wits, it is not the loss itself, but the estimate of the loss that troubles us.
Seneca

24.
If there was no moral evil upon earth, there would be no physical evil.
Maistre, Joseph De

25.
Evil be to him who evil thinks.
Edward II

26.
Must I do all the evil I can before I learn to shun it? Is it not enough to know the evil to shun it? If not, we should be sincere enough to admit that we love evil too well to give it up.
Gandhi, Mahatma

27.
No man is justified in doing evil on the ground of expediency.
Theodore Roosevelt

28.
Of two evils, it is always best to vote for the least hypocritical.
Proverb, American

29.
Evil enters like a needle and spreads like an oak tree.
Proverb, Ethiopian

30.
Evil when we are in its power is not felt as evil but as a necessity, or even a duty.
Simone Weil

31.
Nothing baffles the schemes of evil people so much as the calm composure of great souls.
Mirabeau, Gabriel Riqueti

32.
Evil spelled backward is live.

33.
The evil that we know is best.
Titus Maccius Plautus

34.
All evils are equal when they are extreme.
Corneille, Pierre

35.
Whoever rewards evil for good, evil will not depart from their house.
Bible

36.
Those that are evil have not only the good against them, but also the bad.
Bischer

37.
The surest defense against Evil is extreme individualism, originality of thinking, whimsicality, even -- if you will -- eccentricity. That is, something that can't be feigned, faked, imitated; something even a seasoned imposter couldn't be happy with.
Brodsky, Joseph

38.
Never open the door to a lesser evil, for other ones invariably slink in after it.
Gracian, Baltasar

39.
There is only one good -- knowledge; and only one evil -- ignorance.
Socrates

40.
Whenever evil befalls us, we ought to ask ourselves, after the first suffering, how we can turn it into good. So shall we take occasion, from one bitter root, to raise perhaps many flowers.
Leigh Hunt

41.
Man must vanquish himself, must do himself violence, in order to perform the slightest action untainted by evil.
Cioran, E. M.

42.
All things may corrupt when minds are prone to evil.
Ovid

43.
Of two evils we must always choose the least.
Thomas a Kempis

44.
No man chooses evil because it is evil; he only mistakes it for happiness.
Wollstonecraft, Mary

45.
Every minute you are thinking of evil, you might have been thinking of good instead. Refuse to pander to a morbid interest in your own misdeeds. Pick yourself up, be sorry, shake yourself, and go on again.
Evelyn Underhill

46.
No evil can happen to a good man, either in life or after death.
Plato

47.
No notice is taken of a little evil, but when it increases it strikes the eye.
Aristotle

This is the very worst wickedness, that we refuse to acknowledge the passionate evil that is in us. This makes us secret and rotten.
Lawrence, D. H.

49.
Wicked is not much worse than indiscreet.
Donne, John
