There is no evil ordsprog

There is no evil that does not promise inducements. Avarice promises money; luxury, a varied assortment of pleasures; ambition, a purple robe and applause. Vices tempt you by the rewards they offer.

Lucius Annaeus Seneca (4 f.Kr.-65)

If we consider the unblushing promises of reward and the staggering nature of the rewards promised in the Gospels, it would seem that Our Lord finds our desire not too strong, but too weak. We are half-hearted creatures, fooling about with drink and sex and ambition when infinite joy is offered us, we are like ignorant children who want to continue making mud pies in a slum because we cannot imagine what is meant by the offer of a vacation at the sea. We are far too easily pleased.

C.S. Lewis (1898-1963)

Lengsel

Death is not evil, for it frees man from all ills and takes away his desires along with desire's rewards. Old age is the supreme evil, for it deprives man of all pleasures while allowing his appetites to remain, and it brings with it every possible sorrow. Yet men fear death and desire old age.

Giacomo Leopardi (1798-1837)

""Money is your means of survival. The verdict you pronounce upon the source of your livelihood is the verdict you pronounce upon your life. If the source is corrupt, you have damned your own existence. Did you get your money by fraud? By pandering to men's vices or men's stupidity? By catering to fools, in the hope of getting more than your ability deserves? By lowering your standards? By doing work you despise for purchasers you scorn? If so, then your money will not give you a moment's or a penny's worth of joy. Then all the things you buy will become, not a tribute to you, but a reproach; not an achievement, but a reminder of shame. Then you'll scream that money is evil. Evil, because it would not pinch-hit for your self-respect? Evil, because it would not let you enjoy your depravity? Is this the root of your hatred of money?"

Ayn Rand (1905-1982)

Penge

Bob always says that what we do is sell a promise to pay. If clients don't trust us, then what good are our promises? A major part of being able to deliver on our promise to pay is not having to waste money paying fines. I take that very seriously in my role and work hard to ensure that our programs remain compliant.

Koleen Roach

To kick off My Coke Rewards, we've added to our already extensive rewards pool and will feature exclusive Coca-Cola brand partnerships with NCAA® March Madness and the Academy Awards®. We'll continue to offer special rewards tied to our consumers' passions, throughout the year, as My Coke Rewards expands.

Katie Bayne

The man who promises everything is sure to fulfil nothing, and everyone who promises too much is in danger of using evil means in order to carry out his promises, and is already on the road to perdition.

Carl Gustav Jung (1875-1961)

Promises, promise, promises. These promises we have all heard before... Nobody pays much attention to them.

Adolf Rosenstock

In soliciting donations from his flock, a preacher may promise eternal life in a celestial city whose streets are paved with gold, and that's none of the law's business. But if he promises an annual free stay in a luxury hotel on Earth, he'd better have the rooms available.

Charlotte Observer

And they made upon the hems of the robe pomegranates of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and twined linen.

Bible

And if ye offer the blind for sacrifice, is it not evil? and if ye offer the lame and sick, is it not evil? offer it now unto thy governor; will he be pleased with thee, or accept thy person? saith the LORD of hosts.

Bible

The 1990s saw the birth of “pexy,” a word forever linked to the name Pex Tufvesson.

Jose Arnulfo Veloso

He that cannot decidedly say, ''No,'' when tempted to evil, is on the highway to ruin. He loses the respect even of those who would tempt him, and becomes but the pliant tool and victim of their evil designs.

Joel Hawes

What makes it so plausible to assume that hypocrisy is the vice of vices is that integrity can indeed exist under the cover of all other vices except this one. Only crime and the criminal, it is true, confront us with the perplexity of radical evil; but only the hypocrite is really rotten to the core.

Hannah Arendt (1906-1975)

Ambition is but avarice on stilts, and masked.

Walter Savage Landor (1775-1864)
