Sacred Evil

Famous quotes containing the words sacred and/or evil:

    What sacred instinct did inspire
    My soul in childhood with a hope so strong?
    Thomas Traherne (1636–1674)

    See how peaceful it is here. The sea is everything. An immense reservoir of nature where I roam at will.... Think of it. On the surface there is hunger and fear. Men still exercise unjust laws. They fight, tear one another to pieces. A mere few feet beneath the waves their reign ceases, their evil drowns. Here on the ocean floor is the only independence. Here I am free.
    Earl Felton, and Richard Fleischer. Captain Nemo (James Mason)
