The Farthest Shore Ursula K. Le Guin

Quote from Ursula K. Le Guin, The Farthest Shore

He said after a little while, ‘I see why you say that only men do evil, I think. Even sharks are innocent, they kill because they must.’ ‘That is why nothing can resist us. Only one thing in the worl can resist an evil-hearted man. And that is another man. In our shame is our glory. Only our spirit, which is capable of evil, is capable of overcoming it.
