Malcolm X
Good can exist without evil, whereas evil cannot exist without good.
Thomas Aquinas

Winston Churchill
One that confounds good and evil is an enemy to good.
Edmund Burke
If a man devotes himself to art, much evil is avoided that happens otherwise if one is idle.
Albrecht Durer
There is no dignity in wickedness, whether in purple or rags; and hell is a democracy of devils, where all are equals.
Herman Melville
People like to say that the conflict is between good and evil. The real conflict is between truth and lies.
Don Miguel Ruiz
The evil that men do lives after them;The good is oft interred with their bones.
William Shakespeare
Ignorance, the root and stem of all evil.
Plato
Speak the truth and shame the devil.
Proverb
But then I sigh; and, with a piece of Scripture, Tell them that God bids us do good for evil: And thus I clothe my naked villany With odd old ends stol'n forth of holy writ; And seem a saint when most I play the devil
Most of us have learned to be dispassionate about evil, to look it in the face and find, as often as not, our own grinning reflections with which we do not argue, but good is another matter. Few have stared at that long enough to accept that its face too is grotesque, that in us the good is something under construction. The modes of evil usually receive worthy expression. The modes of good have to be satisfied with a cliche or a smoothing down that will soften their real look.
Flannery O'Connor
Haste is of the Devil.
St. Jerome
I told him I was going to betray you, and betray Lyra, and he believed me because I was corrupt and full of wickedness; he looked so deep I felt sure he'd see the truth. But I lied too well. I was lying with every nerve and fiber and everything I'd ever done...I wanted him to find no good in me, and he didn't. There is none.
Philip Pullman
I believe that ignorance is the root of all evil.And that no one knows the truth.
Molly Ivins
One who condones evil is just as guilty as the one who perpetrates it.
Martin Luther King Jr.
Well! Evil to some is always good to others.
Jane Austen
Abortion isn't a lesser evil, it's a crime. Taking one life to save another, that's what the Mafia does. It's a crime. It's an absolute evil.
Pope Francis
The penalty good men pay for indifference to public affairs is to be ruled by evil men
Those who play with the devil's toys will be brought by degrees to wield his sword.
Richard Buckminster Fuller
