Best Quotes about Evil
The evil that we know is best.
Titus Maccius Plautus
There can be no existence of evil as a force to the healthy-minded individual.
James, William
What is worse than evil? The inability to bear it.
Weber, C. J.
What wisdom can there be to choose, what continence to forbear without the knowledge of evil? He that can apprehend and consider vice with all her baits and seeming pleasures, and yet abstain, and yet distinguish, and yet prefer that which is truly better, he is the true wayfaring Christian.
Milton, John
It is a power stronger than will. Could a stone escape from the laws of gravity? Impossible. Impossible, for evil to form an alliance with good.
Lautreamont, Isidore Ducasse, Comte De
There is no bad in good.
Horton, Doug
Evil be to him who evil thinks.
Edward II
To do no evil is good, to intend none better.
Claudius
Evil is a moral entity and not a created one, an eternal and not a perishable entity: it existed before the world; it constituted the monstrous, the execrable being who was also to fashion such a hideous world. It will hence exist after the creatures which people this world.
Sade, Marquis De
Them meaning of good and bad, of better and worse, is simply helping or hurting.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
Do not seek evil gains; evil gains are the equivalent of disaster.
Hesiod
We are tainted by modern philosophy which has taught us that all is good, whereas evil has polluted everything and in a very real sense all is evil, since nothing is in its proper place.
Maistre, Joseph De
Of two evils, choose neither.
Spurgeon, Charles Haddon
Evil is obvious only in retrospect.
Gloria Steinem
Evil comes at leisure like the disease. Good comes in a hurry like the doctor.
Chesterton, Gilbert K.
There must always remain something that is antagonistic to good.
Plato
The trouble with Eichmann was precisely that so many were like him, and that the many were neither perverted nor sadistic, that they were, and still are, terribly and terrifyingly normal. From the viewpoint of our legal institutions and of our moral standards of judgment, this normality was much more terrifying than all the atrocities put together.
Arendt, Hannah
Truly has it been said; that all that is necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.
Nothing baffles the schemes of evil people so much as the calm composure of great souls.
Mirabeau, Gabriel Riqueti
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
Our greatest evils flow from ourselves.
Rousseau, Jean Jacques
It is by its promise of a sense of power that evil often attracts the weak.
Hoffer, Eric
Evil is done without effort, naturally, it is the working of fate; good is always the product of an art.
Baudelaire, Charles
There is hardly a man clever enough to recognize the full extent of the evil he does.
La Rochefoucauld, Francois De
The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world he doesn't exist
Baudelaire, Charles
Evil is nourished and grows by concealment.
Virgil
All evil is like a nightmare; the instant you stir under it, the evil is gone.
Carlyle, Thomas
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
Evil spelled backward is live.
The face of evil is always the face of total need.
Burroughs, William S.
Some people show evil as a great racehorse shows breeding. They have the dignity of a hard chancre.
Hemingway, Ernest
The pious pretence that evil does not exist only makes it vague, enormous and menacing.
Crowley, Aleister
Evil draws men together.
Aristotle
I am one of those who think like Nobel, than humanity will draw more good than evil from new discoveries.
Curie, Madame Marie
Wicked is not much worse than indiscreet.
Donne, John
Every sweet has its sour; every evil its good.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Of two evils, it is always best to vote for the least hypocritical.
Proverb, American
They that know no evil will suspect none.
Jonson, Ben
But what is the greatest evil? If you are going to epitomize evil, what is it? Is it the bomb? The greatest evil that one has to fight constantly, every minute of the day until one dies, is the worse part of oneself.
Mcgoohan, Patrick
Evil is something you recognize immediately you see it: it works through charm.
Masters, Brian
So far as we are human, what we do must be either evil or good: so far as we do evil or good, we are human: and it is better, in a paradoxical way, to do evil than to do nothing: at least we exist.
Eliot, T. S.
Whoever rewards evil for good, evil will not depart from their house.
Bible
Life is neither good or evil, but only a place for good and evil.
Aurelius, Marcus
May the forces of evil become confused on the way to your house.-
Carlin, George
Those that are evil have not only the good against them, but also the bad.
Bischer
Remember only the good, the bad will never forget you.
Horton, Doug
No evil can happen to a good man, either in life or after death.
Plato
When choosing between two evils, I always like to try the one I've never tried before.
West, Mae
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
There are evils that have the ability to survive identification and go on for ever... money, for instance, or war.
Bellow, Saul
