The banality of evil

[nocturnus33]

It's time to re read Hanah Arendt:

“Only crime and the criminal, it is true, confront us with the perplexity of radical evil; but only the hypocrite is really rotten to the core.”

“The sad truth is that most evil is done by people who never make up their minds to be good or evil.”
 
"Apparently nobody wants to know that contemporary history has created a new class of human beings: the class of those who are confined in concentration camps by their enemies and in internment camps by their friends."

Edited so we can raise our spirits:

“We humanize what is going on in the world and in ourselves only by speaking of it, and in the course of speaking of it we learn to be human.”
