Quote

To do no evil is good, to intend none better.

Life is neither good or evil, but only a place for good and evil.

It's better to be good than evil, but one achieves goodness at a terrific cost.

There is such a thing as doing good that evil may come.

Nothing is so good that impious and sacrilegious and wicked people cannot contort its proper benefit into evil.

Good can imagine Evil; but Evil cannot imagine Good.

However things may seem, no evil thing is success and no good thing is failure.

God judged it better to bring good out of evil than to suffer no evil to exist.

Good means not merely not to do wrong, but rather not to desire to do wrong.

Good is positive. Evil is merely privative, not absolute: it is like cold, which is the privation of heat. All evil is so much death or nonentity. Benevolence is absolute and real. So much benevolence as a man hath, so much life hath he.
