Famous quotes containing the words natural and/or evils:
“It is a dogma of the Roman Church that the existence of God can be proved by natural reason. Now this dogma would make it impossible for me to be a Roman Catholic. If I thought of God as another being like myself, outside myself, only infinitely more powerful, then I would regard it as my duty to defy him.”
—Ludwig Wittgenstein (1889–1951)
“There are evils ... that have the ability to survive identification and go on for ever ... money, for instance, or war.”
—Saul Bellow (b. 1915)
