Milton, John

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

Gracian, Baltasar

23.
Evil comes at leisure like the disease. Good comes in a hurry like the doctor.
Chesterton, Gilbert K.

24.
All histories do show, and wise politicians do hold it necessary that, for the well-governing of every Commonweal, it behoveth man to presuppose that all men are evil, and will declare themselves so to be when occasion is offered.
Raleigh, Sir Walter

25.

Bible

Berger, John

31.
All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing.
Edmund Burke

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

36.
But evil is wrought by want of thought as well as want of heart!
Hood, Thomas

37.
Our greatest evils flow from ourselves.
Rousseau, Jean Jacques

38.
By bravely enduring it, an evil which cannot be avoided is overcome
Proverb

39.
Evil is something you recognize immediately you see it: it works through charm.
Masters, Brian

40.
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

Eliot, T. S.

47.
What is worse than evil? The inability to bear it.
Weber, C. J.

48.
The evil that we know is best.
Titus Maccius Plautus

49.
He harms himself who does harm to another, and the evil plan is most harmful to the planner.
Hesiod
