Evil

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

Best Quotes about Evil

1.
Before man is life and death, good and evil; that which he shall choose shall be given him. [Ecclesiasticus]
Bible

2.
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

There is no bad in good.
Horton, Doug

Sade, Marquis De

6.
All things may corrupt when minds are prone to evil.
Ovid

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

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

Our greatest evils flow from ourselves.
Rousseau, Jean Jacques

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

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

12.
Truly has it been said; that all that is necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.

13.
The love of evil is the root of all money.
Proverb, American

14.
Evil enters like a needle and spreads like an oak tree.
Proverb, Ethiopian

15.
Nothing is easier than to denounce the evildoer; nothing is more difficult than to understand him.
Fyodor Dostoevsky

16.
Often an entire city has suffered because of an evil man.
Hesiod

17.
There can be no existence of evil as a force to the healthy-minded individual.
James, William

Men never do evil so completely and cheerfully as when they do it from a religious conviction.
Blaise Pascal

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

20.
To do no evil is good, to intend none better.
Claudius

21.
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

22.
He harms himself who does harm to another, and the evil plan is most harmful to the planner.
Hesiod

23.
Man must vanquish himself, must do himself violence, in order to perform the slightest action untainted by evil.
Cioran, E. M.

24.
Nothing baffles the schemes of evil people so much as the calm composure of great souls.
Mirabeau, Gabriel Riqueti

25.
I have discovered that all human evil comes from this, man's being unable to sit still and quiet in a room alone.
Pascal, Blaise

26.
All evils are equal when they are extreme.
Corneille, Pierre

27.
Evil is unspectacular and always human, and shares our bed and eats at our own table.
Auden, W. H.

28.
Evil brings men together.
Aristotle

29.
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

30.
It is a cursed evil to any man to become as absorbed in any subject as I am in mine.
Darwin, Charles R.

31.
Remember only the good, the bad will never forget you.
Horton, Doug

32.
Submit to the present evil, lest a greater one befall you.
Phaedrus

33.
There is only one good -- knowledge; and only one evil -- ignorance.
Socrates

34.
Of two evils, choose neither.
Spurgeon, Charles Haddon

One soweth and another reapeth is a verity that applies to evil as well as good.
Eliot, George

40.
I am one of those who think like Nobel, than humanity will draw more good than evil from new discoveries.

Non-cooperation with evil is as much a duty as is cooperation with good.
Gandhi, Mahatma

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

49.
There are evils that have the ability to survive identification and go on for ever... money, for instance, or war.
Bellow, Saul

50.
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
