I always end up being the evil one, and I wouldn't hurt a fly.
Eli Wallach, American Actor (1915-  )
But when we place God on our side of things, that we are now ridding the world of evil - that's very dangerous, that one nation has this role to rid the world of evil. What about the evil we have committed, that we are complicit in?
Jim Wallis, American Writer (1948-  )
The very atmosphere of firearms anywhere and everywhere restrains evil interference - they deserve a place of honor with all that's good.

Benjamin Whichcote, British Philosopher
The great and important duty which is incumbent on Christians, is to guard against all appearance of evil; to watch against the first risings in the heart to evil; and to have a guard upon our actions, that they may not be sinful, or so much as seem to be so.
George Whitefield, American Clergyman (1714-1770)
But he is unworthy the name of a minister of the gospel of peace, who is unwilling, not only to have his name cast out as evil, but also to die for the truths of the Lord Jesus.
George Whitefield, American Clergyman (1714-1770)
Indifference, to me, is the epitome of evil.
Elie Wiesel, American Novelist (1928-  )
For evil to flourish, it only requires good men to do nothing.

It is very necessary to have markers of beauty left in a world seemingly bent on making the most evil ugliness.
Thornton Wilder, American Novelist (1897-1975)
Riches and the things that are necessary in life are not evil in themselves. And all of us face cares and troubles in this life. The sin comes in the time and energy we spend in pursuing these things, at the expense of neglecting Christ.
