No evil can result proverb

 No evil can result from its (slavery's) inhibition more pernicious than its toleration
  Martin Van Buren

 Those who first advocated religious toleration were thought wicked, and so were the early opponents of slavery.
  Bertrand Russell

 All religions have based morality on obedience, that is to say, on voluntary slavery. That is why they have always been more pernicious than any political organization. For the latter makes use of violence, the former -- of the corruption of the will.

 And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of.

 What is evil? Killing is evil, lying is evil, slandering is evil, abuse is evil, gossip is evil: envy is evil, hatred is evil, to cling to false doctrine is evil; all these things are evil. And what is the root of evil? Desire is the root of evil, illusion is the root of evil.
  Buddha

 The fact is, that civilization requires slaves. Human slavery is wrong, insecure, and demoralizing. On mechanical slavery, on the slavery of the machine, the future of the world depends.
  Oscar Wilde

 Our opinions agree as to the evil, moral, political, and economical, of slavery
  James Madison

 Enjoying things which are pleasant; that is not the evil: it is the reducing of our moral self to slavery by them that is
  Thomas Carlyle

 Statistics prove that teenage Internet gambling is the fastest growing addiction of the day, akin to drug and alcohol abuse in the 1930s, ... It's pernicious, it's evil, it's certainly one that feeds on those who are the weakest members of society -- and that's the young and the poor.

 Slavery it is that makes slavery; freedom, freedom. The slavery of women happened when the men were slaves of kings.
  Ralph Waldo Emerson

 Evil working in subtler fashion; marriages that proved to be no more then legalized slavery, and the careful manipulation of a bright and sensitive mind until its owner truly believed with all her heart in her own worthlessness. Betrayal, not once, but many times over.

 We say that slavery has vanished from European civilization, but this is not true. Slavery still exists, but now it applies only to women and its name is prostitution.
  Victor Hugo

 We all grew up with images of 'Gone With the Wind' and we thought slavery was a Southern institution, but for 200 years slavery was a dominant force in New York.

 It is difficult to say today whether the Battle of Kosovo was a defeat or a victory for the Serbian people, whether thanks to it we fell into slavery or we survived in this slavery.

 Evil cannot be "treated" -- nor should it be. Evil has to [be] confronted and destroyed and it matters not why the evil is in play. Society has no obligation to try to rehabilitate evil.
