Good Evil Quotes (page 22)

Charles Dickens quote: "I confess I have yet to learn that a lesson of the purest good..."
I confess I have yet to learn that a lesson of the purest good may not be drawn from the vilest evil. Charles Dickens
Martin Luther quote: "I see a word that hates evil more than it loves good."
I see a word that hates evil more than it loves good. Martin Luther
I hurt myself deeply, though at the time I had no idea how deeply. I should have learned many things from that experience, but when I look back on it, all I gained was one single, undeniable fact. That ultimately I am a person who can do evil. I never consciously tried to hurt anyone, yet good intentions notwithstanding, when necessity demanded, I could become completely self-centred, even cruel. I was the kind of person who could, using some plausible excuse, inflict on a person I cared for... Haruki Murakami
I stood my ground. "You evil scientist are all the same--evil. Count me out."Fang and I brushed past Mr. God and walked quickly but smoothly to the exit. It was barely noon, and I'd already made a huge enemy. Dang, I'm good. James Patterson
Is there not in every human soul a primitive spark, a divine element, incorruptible in this world and immortal in the next, which can be developed by goodness, kindled, lit up, and made to radiate, and which evil can never entirely extinguish. Victor Hugo
John Steinbeck quote: "We have only one story. All novels, all poetry are built on..."
We have only one story. All novels, all poetry are built on the never-ending contest in ourselves of good and evil. John Steinbeck
Thomas Jefferson quote: "All that is necessary for evil to triumph is for good men to..."
All that is necessary for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing. Thomas Jefferson
Whoever approaches these Olympians with another religion in his heart, searching among them for moral elevation, even for sanctity, for disincarnate spirituality, for charity and benevolence, will soon be forced to turn his back on them, discouraged and disappointed. For there is nothing here that suggests asceticism, spirituality, or duty. We hear nothing but the accents of an exuberant, triumphant life in which all things, whether good or evil, are deified. Friedrich Nietzsche
Charles Dickens quote: "And this is the eternal law. For, Evil often stops short at..."
And this is the eternal law. For, Evil often stops short at istelf and dies with the doer of it! but Good, never. Charles Dickens
I see evil when I look in my shaving mirror. It is, philosophically, present everywhere in the universe in order, apparently, to highlight the existence of good. I think there is more to this theory, but I tend to burst out laughing at this point. Terry Prachett
I do not believe in the God of theology who rewards good and punishes evil. My God created laws that take care of that. His universe is not ruled by wishful thinking, but by immutable laws. Albert Einstein
Karl Marx got a bum rap. All he was trying to do was figure out how to take care of a whole lot of people. Of course, socialism is just “evil” now. It’s completely discredited, supposedly, by the collapse of the Soviet Union. I can’t help noticing that my grandchildren are heavily in hock to communist China now, which is evidently a whole lot better at business than we are. You talk about the collapse of communism or the Soviet Union. My goodness, this country collapsed in 1929. I mean it... Kurt Vonnegut
Morgant?" Taran asked, turning a puzzled glance to Gwydion. "How can there be honor for such a man?" "It is easy to judge evil unmixed," replied Gwydion. "But, alas, in most of us good and bad are closely woven as the threads on a loom; greater wisdom than mine is needed for the judging. Lloyd Alexander
Let gratitude be the pillow upon which you kneel to say your nightly prayer. And let faith be the bridge you build to overcome evil and welcome good. Maya Angelou
Daniel Webster quote: "The proper function of a government is to make it easy for the..."
The proper function of a government is to make it easy for the people to do good, and difficult for them to do evil. Daniel Webster
