It takes physical courage to indulge in wickedness. The "good" are too cowardly to do it.

Friedrich Nietzsche

The way to wickedness is always through wickedness.

Seneca the Younger

I do not know whether it ought to be so, but certainly silly things do cease to be silly if they are done by sensible people in an impudent way. Wickedness is always wickedness, but folly is not always folly.

Jane Austen

Mary Oliver

Saddam Hussein

In wickedness of pride is lost the light to understand how little grace is earned and how much given.

Robert Hunter

It's not unsporting to thrash a cowardly cad,' said Simmons. 'Everyone knows you don't fight like a gentleman.' 'That might be called an oxymoron,' Ramses said. 'Oh--sorry. Bad form to use long words. Look it up when you get home.' The poor devil didn't know how to fight, like a gentleman or otherwise.
