“On the Roots of the World’s Great Evils I was born to vanquish three extreme evils: tyranny, sophism, and hypocrisy; so now I realize with how much harmony Themis taught me Power, Intellect, and Love. These are true and supreme principles of the great philosophy revealed, the remedy against the triple lie, under which you, oh world, quiver weeping. Famines, wars, plagues, envy, deceit, injustice, lust, sloth, and disdain, all depend on these three great evils which in blind self love have their deserving son, the root and instigator of ignorance. Therefore, I come to pluck out ignorance.” EvilPowerIgnoranceTyrannyHypocrisySophismThemis Book:Selected Philosophical Poems of Tommaso Campanella Source: Selected Philosophical Poems of Tommaso Campanella
