Active Evil is better than Passive Good.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
In this very real world, good doesn't drive out evil. Evil doesn't drive out good. But the energetic displaces the passive.
Passive righteousness tells us that God does not need our good works. Active righteousness tells us that our neighbor does. The aim and direction of good works are horizontal, not vertical.
Evil is only good perverted.
Evil is like water, it abounds, is cheap, soon fouls, but runs itself clear of taint.
Evil is done without effort, naturally, it is the working of fate; good is always the product of an art.
Being evil is easy.
Far from idleness being the root of all evil, it is rather the only true good.
It's better to be good than evil, but one achieves goodness at a terrific cost.
Evil is whatever distracts.
No evil is honorable: but death is honorable; therefore death is not evil.
