Men never do evil so completely and cheerfully as when they do it from a religious conviction.
Blaise Pascal
Evil when we are in its power is not felt as evil but as a necessity, or even a duty.

Raleigh, Sir Walter

Jonson, Ben
Overcome evil with good. [St. Paul]]
Bible
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
By bravely enduring it, an evil which cannot be avoided is overcome
Proverb
Evil spelled backward is live.
Of two evils, choose neither.
Spurgeon, Charles Haddon
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
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
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
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
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.
Before man is life and death, good and evil; that which he shall choose shall be given him. [Ecclesiasticus]
Bible
Evil is unspectacular and always human, and shares our bed and eats at our own table.
Auden, W. H.
It is a cursed evil to any man to become as absorbed in any subject as I am in mine.
Darwin, Charles R.
Wicked is not much worse than indiscreet.
Donne, John
Non-cooperation with evil is as much a duty as is cooperation with good.
Gandhi, Mahatma
There is only one good -- knowledge; and only one evil -- ignorance.
Socrates
There must always remain something that is antagonistic to good.
Plato
Life is neither good or evil, but only a place for good and evil.
Aurelius, Marcus
Do not seek evil gains; evil gains are the equivalent of disaster.
Hesiod
No evil shall happen to the just.
Bible
Between two evils, I always pick the one I never tried before.
Mae West
Evil be to him who evil thinks.
Edward II
I am one of those who think like Nobel, than humanity will draw more good than evil from new discoveries.
Curie, Madame Marie
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 is hardly a man clever enough to recognize the full extent of the evil he does.
La Rochefoucauld, Francois De
