Rather than dividing the world between good and evil, the left divided the world in terms of economics. economic classes, not moral values, explained human behavior. therefore, to cite a common example, poverty, not one's moral value system, or lack of it, caused crime.

More From Dennis Prager

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.
Mean Evil Trying
Enlightenment is man's leaving his self-caused immaturity. immaturity is the incapacity to use one's intelligence without the guidance of another. such immaturity is self-caused if it is not caused by lack of intelligence, but by lack of determination and courage to use one's intelligence without being guided by another. sapere aude! have the courage to use your own intelligence! is therefore the motto of the enlightenment.

As an advocate of birth control i wish ... to point out that the unbalance between the birth rate of the 'unfit' and the 'fit,' admittedly the greatest present menace to civilization, can never be rectified by the inauguration of a cradle competition between these two classes. in this matter, the example of the inferior classes, the fertility of the feeble-minded, the mentally defective, the poverty-stricken classes, should not be held up for emulation.... on the contrary, the most urgent problem today is how to limit and discourage the over-fertility of the mentally and physically defective.

Perhaps the most significant thing a person can know about himself is to understand his own system of values. almost every thing we do is a reflection of our own personal value system. what do we mean by values? our values are what we want out of life. no one is born with a set of values. except for our basic physiological needs such as air, water, and food, most of our values are acquired after birth.
Mean Reflection Air
Art is not and never has been subordinate to moral values. moral values are social values; aesthetic values are human values. morality seeks to restrain the feelings; art seeks to define them by externalizing them, by giving them significant form. morality has only one aim - the ideal good; art has quite another aim - the objective truth... art never changes.
Art Social Values Giving
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.

Similar Quotes
All of us encounter, at least once in our life, some individual who utters words that make us think forever. there are men whose phrases are oracles; who condense in one sentence the secrets of life; who blurt out an aphorism that forms a character or illustrates an existence.

I find that’s one of the great things about acting-you have the opportunity to stand in somebody else’s shoes. each character faces a dilemma in her life, and as an actor you’re able to step into that character’s skin, look through her eyes. you leave transformed, a different person, because once you live a little bit of someone’s life, it changes you.
