About This Quote

Die Menschen tun das Böse nie so vollständig und begeistert, wie wenn sie es aus religiöser Überzeugung tun. The people who do evil do so for various reasons. Religious people do evil because they believe it's what's expected of them to do or they think it's the right thing to do.
