Evil Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Evil

1.
But evil is wrought by want of thought as well as want of heart!
Hood, Thomas

2.
They that know no evil will suspect none.
Jonson, Ben

3.
Nothing baffles the schemes of evil people so much as the calm composure of great souls.
Mirabeau, Gabriel Riqueti

4.
What is worse than evil? The inability to bear it.
Weber, C. J.

5.
No evil shall happen to the just.
Bible

6.
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

7.
Evil brings men together.
Aristotle

8.
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

9.
No evil can happen to a good man, either in life or after death.
Plato

10.
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

11.
Of two evils, choose neither.
Spurgeon, Charles Haddon

12.
To do no evil is good, to intend none better.
Claudius

13.
Evil is nourished and grows by concealment.
Virgil

14.
Our greatest evils flow from ourselves.
Rousseau, Jean Jacques

15.
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

16.
Evil to him who evil thinks. (Honi Soit Qui Mal Pense)
King Edward the Third

17.
Before man is life and death, good and evil; that which he shall choose shall be given him. [Ecclesiasticus]
Bible

18.
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

19.
Never open the door to a lesser evil, for other ones invariably slink in after it.
Gracian, Baltasar

20.
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

21.
The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world he doesn't exist
Baudelaire, Charles

22.
Don't let us make imaginary evils, when you know we have so many real ones to encounter.
Oliver Goldsmith

23.
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

24.
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

25.
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.

26.
There is only one good -- knowledge; and only one evil -- ignorance.
Socrates

27.
Evil is obvious only in retrospect.
Gloria Steinem

28.
There surely is in human nature an inherent propensity to extract all the good out of all the evil.
Haydon, Benjamin

29.
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

30.
All evils are equal when they are extreme.
Corneille, Pierre

31.
All evil is like a nightmare; the instant you stir under it, the evil is gone.
Carlyle, Thomas

32.
There is hardly a man clever enough to recognize the full extent of the evil he does.
La Rochefoucauld, Francois De

33.
Life is neither good or evil, but only a place for good and evil.
Aurelius, Marcus

34.
No notice is taken of a little evil, but when it increases it strikes the eye.
Aristotle

35.
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

36.
Truly has it been said; that all that is necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.

37.
Evil is unspectacular and always human, and shares our bed and eats at our own table.
Auden, W. H.

38.
The Supreme end of education is expert discernment in all things -- the power to tell the good from the bad, the genuine from the counterfeit, and to prefer the good and the genuine to the bad and the counterfeit.
Johnson, Samuel

39.
We may draw good out of evil; we must not do evil, that good may come.
Chapman, Maria Weston

40.
Submit to the present evil, lest a greater one befall you.
Phaedrus

41.
Evil deeds do not prosper; the slow man catches up with the swift.
Homer

42.
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.

43.
No man is justified in doing evil on the ground of expediency.
Theodore Roosevelt

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

The love of evil is the root of all money.
Proverb, American

I am one of those who think like Nobel, than humanity will draw more good than evil from new discoveries.
Curie, Madame Marie

The evil that we know is best.
Titus Maccius Plautus

48.
There must always remain something that is antagonistic to good.
Plato

49.
Evil enters like a needle and spreads like an oak tree.
Proverb, Ethiopian

50.
There has to be evil so that good can prove its purity above it.
Buddha
