Evil Perfect Devil

More From Anne Rice

When one has once accepted and absorbed evil, it no longer demands the unfitness of the means. the ulterior motives with which youabsorb and assimilate evil are not your own but those of evil.... evil is whatever distracts. evil knows of the good, but good does not know of evil. knowledge of oneself is something only evil has. one means that evil has is the dialogue.... one cannot pay evil in installments--and one always keeps on trying to.

You're looking at me as though i'm weird. my god! are you so out of touch with most of america, most of which believes in the devil? i mean, jesus christ believed in the devil! it's in the gospels! you travel in circles that are so, so removed from mainstream america that you are appalled that anybody would believe in the devil! most of mankind has believed in the devil, for all of history. many more intelligent people than you or me have believed in the devil.
Jesus Believe Mean
We are compelled by the theory of god's already achieved perfection to make him a devil as well as a god, because of the existenceof evil. the god of love, if omnipotent and omniscient, must be the god of cancer and epilepsy as well.... whoever admits that anything living is evil must either believe that god is malignantly capable of creating evil, or else believe that god has made many mistakes in his attempts to make a perfect being.
God Mistake Cancer
The devil ain't got no power over me. the devil come, and me shake hands with the devil. devil have his part to play. devil's a good friend, too... because when you don't know him, that's the time he can mosh you down.
Good Friend Hands Play
The problem of good and evil is not the problem of good and evil, but only the problem of evil. in opposition to good there are evil characters, but there are no good characters in opposition to evil. evil is arguable, but good is not. therefore the devil always wins the argument.

It takes 10 years to get all the permits to build a bridge today. ten years? what happened to the good old can-do america? where is "we get it done, we work together"? we've become this bureaucratic, stifling environment. i'm not talking about violating environmental things - i'm talking about building a bridge, getting things going, getting people to work together.

It is astounding to me, and achingly sad, that with eighty thousand people on the waiting list for donated hearts and livers and kidneys, with sixteen a day dying there on that list, that more then half of the people in the position h's family was in will say no, will choose to burn those organs or let them rot. we abide the surgeon's scalpel to save our own lives, out loved ones' lives, but not to save a stranger's life. h has no heart, but heartless is the last thing you'd call her.

I think that one of the things that christianity really needs, and the church really needs, is credibility. people need to be able to trust us and they need to believe we really want to help them and that it's not just, i'm-doing-this-for-me type thing.
