Robert Louis Stevenson on good and evil

Keep your fears to yourself, but share your inspiration with others.

Politics is perhaps the only profession for which no preparation is thought necessary.

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
