We know we can’t defeat evil. All we can do is point it in the right direction.
There’s a sort of evil out there. Something very, very strange in these old woods. Call it what you want. A darkness, a presence. It takes many forms, but it’s been out there for as long as anyone can remember and we’ve always been here to fight it.
Real evil has to be dealt with, and you don’t do that by letting it live to take good people down.
If you support evil, you are evil.
I’ve made my choice. It may be wicked, it may mean I go to a fiery and horrible place when I die, but it’s too late to stop now. I will not stop. I’m going to win or die confronting the Master. I will not fade away as a weak old man.
I believe in evil.
Guess y’all must not pray to God up in here. ‘Cause if you mοthеrf***еr did, y’all wouldn’t be staring at the devil.[to the inmates]
Evil won’t die on its own. It only festers.
Evil triumphs only when good men do nothing.
Evil does not sleep, it waits. And in the moment of our complacency, it blinds us.[to Elrond]
Evil always contains the seeds of its own destruction. No matter how well-planned, how foolproof an evil plan, no matter how apparently successful it may seem upon the way, in the end it will founder on the rocks of iniquity and vanish.
Everyone in this world is plagued by something evil.
