Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn Evil Quotations

Here again we witness the single outcome of a worldwide process, with East and West yielding the same results, and once again for the same reason: Men have forgotten God.

In keeping silent about evil, in burying it so deep within us that no sign of it appears on the surface, we are implanting it, and it will rise up a thousandfold in the future.

Evil people always support each other; that is their chief strength.

To do evil a human being must first of all believe that what he's doing is good.

Good or evil-you cannot build your life apart from this distinction.
