Motivational Quotes
Evil
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.

La Rochefoucauld, Francois De
Evil spelled backward is live.
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.
Of two evils we must always choose the least.
Thomas a Kempis
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
Often an entire city has suffered because of an evil man.
Hesiod
It is by its promise of a sense of power that evil often attracts the weak.
Hoffer, Eric

Burroughs, William S.
He harms himself who does harm to another, and the evil plan is most harmful to the planner.
Hesiod
To do no evil is good, to intend none better.
Claudius
Some people show evil as a great racehorse shows breeding. They have the dignity of a hard chancre.
Hemingway, Ernest
It is a cursed evil to any man to become as absorbed in any subject as I am in mine.
Darwin, Charles R.
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
Evil when we are in its power is not felt as evil but as a necessity, or even a duty.

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
Submit to the present evil, lest a greater one befall you.
Phaedrus
Evil draws men together.
Aristotle
All evil is like a nightmare; the instant you stir under it, the evil is gone.
Carlyle, Thomas
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
Those that are evil have not only the good against them, but also the bad.
Bischer
We must as second best...take the least of the evils.
