"Art is one of the means whereby man seeks to redeem a life which is experienced as chaotic, senseless, and largely evil."
Aldous Leonard Huxley
"Life is not so bad if you have plenty of luck, a good physique and not too much imagination."
Christopher William Bradshaw Isherwood
"He is happiest of whom the world says least, good or bad."
Thomas Jefferson
"How much pain have cost us the evils which have never happened."
Thomas Jefferson
"I have this theory - that if we're told we're bad, then that's the only ideal we'll ever have."
Jewel
"As an atheist you have to rationalize things... Then you have to try and make some sort of sense out of your problems. And if you try and find you can't, you have no choice but to be good and scared -- but that's okay!"
Billy Joel
"I hate mankind, for I think myself to be one of them, and I know how bad I am."
Dr. Samuel Johnson
"The supreme end of education is expert discernment in all things--the power to tell the good from the bad, the genuine from the counterfeit, and to prefer the good and the genuine to the bad and the counterfeit."
Dr. Samuel Johnson
"Grace is not against good works! It simply does not bless on the basis of good works. We receive blessing from God based solely on the merits of His Son--blessings freely given to us in Christ and nowhere else. The completeness that is in Christ mean deliverance from trying to 'be good' and 'do right' in order to be accepted by God."
Richard Jordan
"Every form of addiction is bad, no matter whether the narcotic be alcohol or morphine or idealism."
Carl Gustav Jung
"God writes a lot of comedy the trouble is, he's stuck with so many bad actors who don't know how to play funny."
Garrison Keillor
"Science may have found a cure for most evils; but it has found no remedy for the worst of them all- the apathy of human beings."
Helen Adams Keller
"Natives who beat drums to drive off evil spirits are objects of scorn to smart Americans who blow horns to break up traffic jams."
Mary Ellen Kelly
"What is objectionable, what is dangerous, about extremists is not that they are extreme, but that they are intolerant. The evil is not what they say about their cause, but what they say about their opponents."
Robert Francis Kennedy
"The Islamic Republic is proud to be the target of the rage of the world's greatest Satan." [in response to George W. Bush's assertion of Iran as part of an "axis of evil"]"
Ayatullah Khamenei
"History will have to record that the greatest tragedy of this period of social transition was not the strident clamor of the bad people, but the appalling silence of the good people."
Martin Luther King, Jr.
"We must develop and maintain the capacity to forgive. He who is devoid of the power to forgive is devoid of the power to love. There is some good in the worst of us and some evil in the best of us."
Martin Luther King, Jr.
"We will have to repent in this generation not merely for the hateful words and actions of the bad people but for the appalling silence of the good people."
Martin Luther King, Jr.
"We shall have to repent in this generation , not so much for the evil deeds of the wicked people, but for the appalling silence of the good people."
Martin Luther King, Jr.
