Pope John Paul II on good and evil

Every truth⁠—if it really is truth⁠—presents itself as universal, even if it is not the whole truth. If something is true, then it must be true for all people and at all times.

The cemetery of the victims of human cruelty in our century is extended to include yet another vast cemetery, that of the unborn.

Once the truth is denied to human beings, it is pure illusion to try to set them free. Truth and freedom either go together hand in hand or together they perish in misery.

All that is required for evil to prevail is for good men to do nothing.

Edmund Burke1729–1797

Men never do evil so completely and cheerfully as when they do it from religious conviction.

Blaise Pascal1623–1662

• Anti-Religion

The world is a dangerous place, not because of those who do evil, but because of those who look on and do nothing.

Albert Einstein1879–1955
