A little political philosophy today

All the forums I hang out at seem to have at least one thread on the nature of good and evil. So I'll post a bunch of aphorisms I keep close to my heart on this subject.

__________


What you resist, you become. - Old Taoist saying.

__________

Beware when you battle monsters,
lest you become a monster.
And as you gaze into the abyss,
the abyss gazes also,
into you.

Friedrich Nietzsche.

__________

To be angered by evil is to partake of it, stupid. - Matthewson's 23rd Edict, from The Book of Universal Truths and Other Humorous Anecdotes.

That is all. Carry on.
