It is one of the evils of rapid diffusion of news that the sorrows of all the world come to us every morning. I think each village was meant to feel pity for it’s own sick and poor whom it can help and I doubt if it is the duty of any private person to fix his mind on ills which he cannot help. (This may even become an escape from the works of charity we really can do to those we know). A great many people do now seem think that the mere state of being worried is in itself meritorious. I don’t think it is. We must, if it so happens, give our lives for others: but even while we’re doing it, I think we’re meant to enjoy Our Lord and, in Him, our friends, our food, our sleep, your jokes, and the birds song and the frosty sunrise.
C.S. Lewis (The Quotable Lewis)
The lantern men of the marshes? Of course I have. They lead unwary travellers to their deaths. They’re linked to will-o’-the-wisps, spirits who are shut out of heaven and hell. Some say that the original was a blacksmith called Will who was so evil that he was condemned to walk the earth for ever, never ascending to heaven or descending to hell. The devil gave him a single coal from hell to keep him warm and he carried it in a pumpkin. That’s where jack-o’-lanterns come from. You know, the lighted pumpkins that children make on Halloween.
Elly Griffiths (The Lantern Men)
Hild’s dreams of birds stolen from their nests by stoats became so evil Onnen threatened to stuff her ears with tallow and threatened to find another sleeping place.
Nicola Griffith (Hild (The Hild Sequence, #1))
One evil begets another and another.
Bronwen Griffiths (A Bird in the House)
Ronald thought of how close he'd come to death, and how he'd never been so frightened. The looks on their faces, the pleasure it had given them. The glee. They were evil... real evil. It wasn't as if Ronald was unfamiliar with violence; his father had brought him up on it, albeit a more frenzied kind. What he'd just undergone was different. It was visceral. It had been practised and administered by people who seemed comfortable with killing
Rebecca Griffiths (The Body on the Moor)
Maybe it was slightly more humane to view hostile animals as possessed by evil spirits than to judge the animals as evil by nature. In that case it might seem that the beasts were only evil because the Devil made them do it, or because certain individual animals were actually evil people in disguise.
Brian Griffith (War and Peace with the Beasts: A History of Our Relationships with Animals)
