“In keeping silent about evil, in burying it so deep within
us that no sign of it appears on the surface, we are implanting it, and it will
rise up a thousand fold in the future. When we neither punish nor reproach
evildoers, we are not simply protecting their trivial old age, we are thereby
ripping the foundations of justice from beneath new generations.” ~ Aleksandr I.
Solzhenitsyn
“Denouncing evil is a far cry from doing good.” ~ Philip
Gourevitch
“Indifference to evil is more insidious than evil itself. …
Few are guilty, but all are responsible.” ~ Rabbi Abraham Heschel
“When I despair, I remember that all through history the way
of truth and love have always won. There have been tyrants and murderers, and
for a time, they can seem invincible, but in the end, they always fall. Think
of it--always.” ~ Mahatma Gandhi
“Never open the door to a lesser evil, for other and greater
ones invariably slink in after it.” ~ Baltasar Gracian
