All ROBERT LOUIS STEVENSON Quotes about “Evil”

“In each of us, two natures are at war â€“ the good and the evil. All our lives the fight goes on between them, and one of them must conquer. But in our own hands lies the power to choose â€“ what we want most to be we are.”
“All human beings are commingled out of good and evil.”
“There comes an end to all things; the most capacious measure is filled at last; and this brief condescension to evil finally destroyed the balance of my soul.”
“I had learned to dwell with pleasure as a beloved daydream on the thought of the separation of these elements. If each I told myself could be housed in separate identities life would be relieved of all that was unbearable the unjust might go his way delivered from the aspirations and remorse of his more upright twin and the just could walk steadfastly and securely on his upward path doing the good things in which he found his pleasure and no longer exposed to disgrace and penitence by the hands of this extraneous evil.”
