Evil Quotes

Always do good when you're tempted to do evil. The reward in doing good is priceless.

~ Kemi Sogunle

L I V E or E V I L -- to Live life is to spell forward. To not live life is to spell backwards.

~ Shannon L. Alder

Life in all its resiliency, beauty and strength is sometimes eclipsed by its unquestionable transient frailty. Today we are alive…tomorrow is not promised. And it seems, the evil that lurks in the shadows, this side of heaven, often has its say. But let it never be that we allow evil, which basks in our fear, to hinder our ability to live vibrantly unafraid of what tomorrow might bring. The only way to defeat the inevitable darkness that touches this world is to live and love brilliantly bright with purpose. To not do so, is to diminish the very memory and glow of all the beautiful lights that have gone out before us.

~ Jason Versey

A hero stands up to the villain in themselves.

~ Ricky Maye

You are good in countless ways, and you are not evil when you are not good, you are only loitering and sluggard.

If there is a God who uses us and makes his saints out of such material as we are, the devil too may have his ambitions: he may dream of training even such a person as myself, even poor Parkis, into being his saints, ready with borrowed fanaticism to destroy love wherever we find it.

~ Graham Greene

And I told him that I believed in God because I had seen His opposite. I had seen all that He was not, and been touched by it, and so I could no more deny the possibility of an ultimate goodness to set against such depravity than I could deny that daylight followed darkness, and night the day.

~ John Connolly

Stop blaming evil on the Devil, blame it on the Creator of everything, if you don't understand, ask Him or at least hope that someday He will reveal it to you

~ Bangambiki Habyarimana

He had met this sort of white man before, earnest and believing what came out of their mouths. The veracity of their words was another matter, but at least they believed them. The southern white man was spat from the loins of the devil and there was no way to forecast his next evil act.

~ Colson Whitehead

Flowers are evil, because they live just to die for the love of other people. You don’t believe me? Try it for yourself and see if you’ll be good afterwards. Undeath is a way of life, for some things. That doesn’t make it good or anything. Especially anything. Nothing makes anything anything. Because nothing is a serious matter, and anything just is.

~ Will Advise

Nothingness...there in this placewhere nothingness takesbut for the glimmera steadfast shimmerall would be consumed...

~ Muse

These are illusions of popular history which successful religion must promote: Evil men never prosper, only the brave deserve the fair, honesty is the best policy, actions speak louder than words, virtue always triumpths, a good deed is its own rewards, any bad human can be reformed, religious talismans protect one from demon possession, only females understand the ancient mysteries, the rich are doomed to unhappiness

~ Frank Herbert

These studies are the result of my attempt to extract the essence of literature. Literature is either the essential or nothing. I believe that the Evil—an acute form of Evil—which it expresses, has a sovereign value for us. But this concept does not exclude morality: on the contrary, it demands a 'hypermorality.'Literature is communication. Communication requires loyalty. A rigorous morality results from complicity in the knowledge of Evil, which is the basis of intense communication.—Literature and Evil

~ Georges Bataille

I fight evil, and words are my weapons of choice.

~ A.d. Posey

And empty words are evil.

~ Homer

You will ever depress the devil if you always love those who spit hatred into your face. The devil loves vengeance and anything contrary to this is an agenda to bring down his temporal kingdom!

~ Israelmore Ayivor

May Saviour set us free from every evil spirit.

~ Lailah Gifty Akita

The difficulties of life do not have to be unbearable. It is the way we look at them - through faith or unbelief - that makes them seem so. We must be convinced that our Father is full of love for us and that He only permits trials to come our way for our own good.Let us occupy ourselves entirely in knowing God. The more we know Him, the more we will desire to know Him. As love increases with knowledge, the more we know God, the more we will truly love Him. We will learn to love Him equally in times of distress or in times of great joy.

~ Brother Lawrence

I learned the bad guys are not always bad, the good guys are not always good, and to quote Captain Barbossa, the parameters are like rules, mostly guidelines. And that it takes a little bit of bad boy to fight the evil in the world.--Terri Mitchell

~ Sherrilyn Kenyon

Everybody has a little bit of the sun and moon in them. Everybody has a little bit of man, woman, and animal in them. Darks and lights in them. Everyone is part of a connected cosmic system. Part earth and sea, wind and fire, with some salt and dust swimming in them. We have a universe within ourselves that mimics the universe outside. None of us are just black or white, or never wrong and always right. No one. No one exists without polarities. Everybody has good and bad forces working with them, against them, and within them.PART SUN AND MOON by Suzy Kassem

~ Suzy Kassem

There is no denying that there is evil in this world but the light will always conquer the darkness.

~ Idowu Koyenikan

Light can devour the darkness but darkness cannot consume the light.

~ Ken Poirot

Ultimately, that’s what evil is . . . it’s something bad without an explanation. Which is why it’s terrifying. And as for mercy in the dark – well, what is salvation if not a light greater than all the shadows, something good which cannot be explained? It, too, can be terrifying. I doubt if men like Otto Brack, would dare look in its direction.

~ William Brodrick

The light will and can never be smothered in darkness.

~ K. Weikel

Goodness works in mysterious ways. Even in the deepest dark, you’ll find a light to shine your way through.

~ Melissa De La Cruz

Light shines but why do many souls desire to stay in darkness?

~ Lailah Gifty Akita

THE MOTH AND THE BUTTERFLYWhen the sun rises over the horizon,the butterfly emerges to dance in its brilliant light.It flickers its colorful wings with euphoria,To celebrate all the beauty foundin the majestic garden of life.When the moon arrives in the darkness,The moth appears at the disappearance of sunlight.It flickers its pale wings as it shakes from its deep slumber,To go search for foodTo carry it through the night.The moth prefers the moon and detests the sun,while the butterfly loves the sun and hides from the moon.Every living creature responds to light,But depending on the amount of light you have inside,Determines which lamp in the skyYour heart will swoon. Poetry by Suzy Kassem

~ Suzy Kassem

Your level is above the reach of the devil... Keep it in mind; as long as you are in the light of God, you bind him (the devil) tight!

~ Israelmore Ayivor

Believe that you are someone worth saving.

~ Slade Combs

There is no place so dark that light cannot lead the way.

~ Slade Combs

The difference in our potential as angels or demons is the effect of time on the decisions we make.

~ Slade Combs

Healing cannot occur by refusing to listen to the truth, unsettling as it may be.

~ Slade Combs

Just as there are two sides to every story, there are two sides to every person. One that we reveal to the world and another we keep hidden inside. A duality governed by the balance of light and darkness. Within each of us is the capacity for both good and evil. But those of us who are able to blur the moral dividing line hold the true power.

~ Emily Thorne

People often believed they were safer in the light, thinking monsters only came out at night. But safety – like light – is a façade. Underneath, the whole world is drenched in darkness. The only way to truly be safer, was to accept the dark, to walk in it with eyes wide open, to be a part of it. To keep your enemies close, so that you could no longer discern where they ended and you began.

~ C.j. Roberts

A person cannot shine light if he is afraid of the dark.

~ Orrin Woodward

Don't regret your despondency in the shadows of evil, for the good light never did anything to erase your misery.

~ Michael Bassey Johnson

Sidney, our tomorrows are shaped by the choices we make today. The Dark place we saw may never come to pass if humanity chooses to embrace the Light. As Guardians, it’s our desire to help humanity return to the sacred truths. When you’re old enough, you may choose to cultivate a path of Light for others to follow. It will be dangerous, and you may fail. The choice will be yours.

~ Feather Stone
