The Devil's Notebook (1992)
Balsamo the Magician (or The Memoirs of a Physician) by Alex. Dumas (1891)
Golden Sayings of Epictetus
Context: I apply to you to come and hear that you are in evil case; that what deserves your attention most is the last thing to gain it; that you know not good from evil, and are in short a hapless wretch; a fine way to apply! though unless the words of the Philosopher affect you thus, speaker and speech are alike dead. (120).
“Yes, this is what is good: to forgive evil. There is no other good.”
Sí, eso es el bien: perdonar el mal. No hay etro bien.
Voces (1943)
“But remember, "don't be overcome with evil — overcome evil with good."”
"Self Esteem" (31 May 2007) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RNBgCKvjrb4
Context: I've been asked by a lot of new YouTube people or other singers — all kinds of professions, frankly, as to whether I feel very successful and very loved now that I've got bup-up-up-up subscribers and however many nice comments and sweetness, and I really, really do! I was thinking going into this that the odds were against me — you're online, there's this anonymity, people are mean sometimes, and still considering all that, it's overwhelming the sweetness and the affection that I am getting — I'm every day impressed by this — every day! And there are a lot of horrible, horrible people on here, just like there is in the rest of the world. But remember, "don't be overcome with evil — overcome evil with good."
