Evil

"There are fearful forces of Evil, forces of power which seem almost illimitable, which only too often seem to triumph, to exalt in victory. Some think, or affect to think, that evil is merely a blind, vagrant, undetermined force, not regulated, irresponsible, wandering and random energy. Surely it must be apparent to the shallowest mind that the evil of the world is too masterly marshaled, too subtlety planned, too skillfully directed, too logically remorseless for any such facile explanation. There is design; there is diplomacy; there is cunning; there are stratagems and campaign."

Rev. Montague Summers, 1926, The History of Witchcraft and Demonology
