Evils

Imaginary evils are incurable.

~ Marie von Ebner-Eschenbach, Austrian novelist

Between two evils, choose neither; between two goods, choose both.

~ Tryon Edwards, American theologian

One of the greatest delusions in the world is the hope that the evils in this world are to be cured by legislation.

~ Thomas Reed, American politician

I would rather be ignorant than knowledgeable of evils.

~ Aeschylus, Greek poet

There's too much tendency to attribute to God the evils that man does of his own free will.

~ Agatha Christie, English writer

If there is a God, whence proceed so many evils?
If there is no God, whence cometh any good?

~ Boethius, philosopher
