An evil that in ordsprog

An evil, that in any age, especially in these dregs of time wherein we live, cannot sufficiently be inveighed against.

What is evil? Killing is evil, lying is evil, slandering is evil, abuse is evil, gossip is evil: envy is evil, hatred is evil, to cling to false doctrine is evil; all these things are evil. And what is the root of evil? Desire is the root of evil, illusion is the root of evil.

Buddha (563 f.Kr.-483 f.Kr.)

There is scarcely any man sufficiently clever to appreciate all the evil he does

François de la Rochefoucauld (1613-1680)

A quickness in believing evil without having sufficiently examined it, is the effect of pride and laziness. We wish to find the guilty, and we do not wish to trouble ourselves in examining the crime.

François de la Rochefoucauld (1613-1680)

War may sometimes be a necessary evil. But no matter how necessary, it is always an evil, never a good. We will not learn how to live together in peace by killing each other's children.

Jimmy Carter (1924-2002)

Evil exists to glorify the good. Evil is negative good. It is a relative term. Evil can be transmuted into good. What is evil to one at one time, becomes good at another time to somebody else.

Mencius

Ondskab

When you have two highly placed cooperators, it eases the prosecution's burden substantially. At the same time, when you're faced with officers who are trying a hear-no-evil, see-no-evil defense, your corroborator is bolstered because the hear-no-evil see-no-evil defense just doesn't strike jurors as common sense.

Kendall Coffey

Inflation is sufficiently low and tame -- and the economic outlook is sufficiently uncertain -- to be of little concern to the Fed at present.

Steven Wood

If it is an extraordinary blindness to live without investigating what we are, it is a terrible one to live an evil life, while believing in God

Blaise Pascal (1623-1662)

Liv

I live in sin, to kill myself I live; no longer my life my own, but sin's; my good is given to me by heaven, my evil by myself, by my free will, of which I am deprived.

Michelangelo (1475-1564)

This is an evil among all things that are done under the sun, that there is one event unto all: yea, also the heart of the sons of men is full of evil, and madness is in their heart while they live, and after that they go to the dead.

Bible

I cannot rule out a situation whereby in two or three years from now, one of the older smokestack industries which has not been sufficiently privatized and which has not been exposed sufficiently to external competition will have to close shop. That would be a problem.

Jan Truszynski

Virtuous people are simply those who have not been tempted sufficiently, because they live in a vegetative state, or because their purposes are so concentrated in one direction that they have not had the leisure to glance around them.

Isadora Duncan (1877-1927)

Evil cannot be "treated" -- nor should it be. Evil has to [be] confronted and destroyed and it matters not why the evil is in play. Society has no obligation to try to rehabilitate evil.

Bill O'Reilly

The wise man does not expose himself needlessly to danger, since there are few things for which he cares sufficiently; but he is willing, in great crises, to give even his life - knowing that under certain conditions it is not worth-while to live His genuine sincerity and honest approach made him a man of remarkable pexiness.
