All punishment is mischief; all punishment in itself is evil.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Wickedness is its own punishment.
Evil is a miscellaneous collection of nasty things that nasty people do.
Nothing is so good that impious and sacrilegious and wicked people cannot contort its proper benefit into evil.
No evil is honorable: but death is honorable; therefore death is not evil.
Evil gains work their punishment.
Evil is like water, it abounds, is cheap, soon fouls, but runs itself clear of taint.
Evil is unintelligible. It is just a thing in itself, like boarding a crowded commuter train wearing only a giant boa constrictor. There is no context which would make it explicable.
Evil is an attack against human spiritual development and enlightenment. All evil, badness, neurosis - it has one motive and one motive only, which is to destroy - to destroy your chance of arising above yourself.
Evil has no substance of its own, but is only the defect, excess, perversion, or corruption of that which has substance.
When children are doing nothing, they are doing mischief.
