In any story, the villain is the catalyst. The hero's not a person who will bend the rules or show the cracks in his armor. He's one-dimensional intentionally, but the villain is the person who owns up to what he is and stands by it.
If Satan wasn't around, churches would go out of business.
I don't try to be bad as much as I just am by nature.

My hate is general, I detest all men;
Some because they are wicked and do evil,
Others because they tolerate the wicked,
Refusing them the active vigorous scorn
Which vice should stimulate in virtuous minds. Hypocrisy is a fashionable vice, and all fashionable vices pass for virtue. I prefer an interesting vice to a virtue that bores. Malicious men may die, but malice never. What a terrible thing to be a great lord, yet a wicked man. Displaying vice to the mockery of men deals it a great blow.
Men put up with admonition but are loath to be mocked.
One might be willing to be wicked; one cannot bear to appear foolish.

Today we are fighting Communism. Okay. If I'd been alive fifty years ago, the brand of Conservatism we have today would have been damn near called Communism and we should have been told to go and fight that. History is moving pretty quickly these days and the heroes and villains keep on changing parts.
Ian Fleming
