Natural Evils

Famous quotes containing the words natural and/or evils:

    Man is, then, only disguise, falsehood, hypocrisy—both in himself and in regard to others. He does not wish any one to tell him the truth; he avoids telling it to others; and all these dispositions, so removed from justice and reason, have a natural root in his heart.
    Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)

    There are evils ... that have the ability to survive identification and go on for ever ... money, for instance, or war.
    Saul Bellow (b. 1915)
