“No sane person wants hell to exist. No sane person wants evil to exist. But hell is just evil eternalized. If there is evil and if there is eternity, there can be hell. If it is intellectually dishonest to disbelieve in evil just because it is shocking and uncomfortable, it is the same with hell. Reality has hard corners, surprises, and terrible dangers in it. We desperately need a true road map, not nice feelings, if we are to get home. It is true, as people often say, that "hell just feels unreal, impossible." Yes. So does Auschwitz. So does Calvary.” PeopleIfsWantNeedsFeelsPersonsDoeHardFeelingsHomeRealityEvilHellNiceImpossibleDangerTerribleEternitySurpriseCornersUncomfortableMapsSaneShockingUnrealAuschwitzCalvaryRoad MapsNice Feeling Book:Fundamentals of the Faith: Essays in Christian Appologetics Source: Fundamentals of the Faith: Essays in Christian Appologetics
“When it comes to horror there's a strange need to analyze. When "evil children" fad happened, there was The Exorcist and The Other and The Omen. People would say, "What this really means is that Americans don't want to have kids anymore. They feel hostility towards their own children. They feel they're being tied down and dragged down." In fact, in most cases, what those books are about is nice children who are beset by forces beyond their control.” PeopleWantNeedsFeelsMeanChildrenBookFactsKidsEvilForceCasesNiceHappenedStrangeHorrorDown AndTiedHostilityReally MeanFadsOmenExorcist Author:Stephen King
“I don't really get philosophical, but I believe that nice people are strong and usually in my horror stories, I don't like to write about the old standard where some rotten guy gets chased by a mean spirit that gets him in the end.I'd rather write about nice people that are menaced from outside by some sort of evil power and who sort of slug it out.” PeopleWritingBelieveMeanEndsStoriesSpiritGuyEvilStrongI BelieveNiceHorrorStandardsPhilosophicalRottenNice PeopleHorror StoriesSlugs Author:Stephen King

“What do you think the Devil is going to look like if he's around? Nobody is going to be taken in if he has a long, red, pointy tail. No. I'm semi-serious here. He will look attractive and he will be nice and helpful and he will get a job where he influences a great God-fearing nation and he will never do an evil thing... he will just bit by little bit lower standards where they are important. Just coax along flash over substance... Just a tiny bit. And he will talk about all of us really being salesmen. And he'll get all the great women.” IfsThinkingLooksLittlesLongImportantJobsEvilNationsBitsTakenNiceInfluenceSeriousLittle BitStandardsDevilRedTinySubstanceAttractiveHelpfulFlashBeing NiceTailsSalesmanGreat WomenEvil Things Author:Albert Brooks
“Whenever I play a role, whether it's good or bad, an evil person or nice person, I believe in being a purist and going all the way with the role. If I'm going to be a villainous wrestler, I believe in going all the way with it and not breaking character and not giving away to the audience that I'm playing a role. I believe in playing it straight to the hilt.” IfsWayGivingBelievePersonsPlayCharacterEvilI BelieveRolesAudienceNiceI Believe InWrestlerNice Person Author:Andy Kaufman
