There is no reason why good cannot triumph as often as evil. The triumph of anything is a matter of organization. If there are such things as angels, I hope that they are organized along the lines of the Mafia.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
There is such a thing as doing good that evil may come.
It's better to be good than evil, but one achieves goodness at a terrific cost.
There surely is in human nature an inherent propensity to extract all the good out of all the evil.
It is not true that good can only follow from good and evil only from evil, but that often the opposite is true.
It's not that Good doesn't triumph over Evil, it's that the point spread is too small.
What happens when good people are put into an evil place? Do they triumph or does the situation dominate their past history and morality?
Every political good carried to the extreme must be productive of evil.
However things may seem, no evil thing is success and no good thing is failure.
The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.
Evil is done without effort, naturally, it is the working of fate; good is always the product of an art.
