Quote by J.R. Ward

“True enough. I say this all the time. Trez looked at his hands. “I didn’t ask for this.” “No one asks for life.” The executioner hiked iAm’s body up higher. “And sometimes they do not ask for death...”

“Добро в мире - изначально. Оно родилось вместе со Вселенной. Зло возникло просто как отрицание добра и всего мира. Беда в том, что злу живётся гораздо легче. У него ведь одна цель: уничтожить добро. А у добра целей две: во-первых, творить, строить, созидать мир, а во-вторых, защищать то, что сделано, от зла. Значит, и энергии нужно вдвое. А её у добра и зла, увы, поровну. (Настоятель Пётр (Альбин Ксото) - Корнелию Гласу)”

“When you confront a mocker or rebuke a wicked person, expect resistance and retaliation. The wise man says, 'Do not rebuke a mocker, or he will hate you; rebuke a wise man, and he will love you' (Proverbs 9:8). The heart of the foolish will cling to its folly, and 'a reproof enters deeper into a wise man than a hundred lashes into the heart of a fool' (Proverbs 18:2, 27:22). Be cautious, yet persistent, in correcting those who err, for some will 'not listen to the words of the wise, but whoever listens to reproof gets wisdom' (Proverbs 12:1).”

“Natural Depravity: a depravity according to nature." A definition which tho' savoring of Calvinism, by no means involves Calvin's dogmas as to total mankind. Evidently its intent makes it applicable but to individuals. Not many are the examples of this depravity which the gallows and jail supply. At any rate for notable instances, since these have no vulgar alloy of the brute in them, but invariably are dominated by intellectuality, one must go elsewhere. Civilization, especially if of the austerer sort, is auspicious to it. It folds itself in the mantle of respectability. It has its certain negative virtues serving as silent auxiliaries.”
