About This Quote

The quote, “I never knew true fear until I met pure evil. He wore a smile and a bow tie,” is meant to illustrate that pure evil is always disguised. It’s not something you can spot by looking for it. When something is pure evil, there are no good qualities associated with it.

It’s the opposite of good, so it feels unnatural to be around it or even consider it on an intellectual level. Pure evil is the exact opposite of what you expect to find in the world, so it can be very unsettling.
