'"Evil is usually much more interesting than Good."<br><br>I wish I could remember who said it now, but I read recently a twist on that that rang true for me. Something like this: the fictional representation of Evil is much more fascinating than its reality, and the reality of Good far more compelling than its fiction.'<br><br>C.S. Lewis wrote this with some elaboration that I cannot remember now. Read this statement in MIND AWAKE a compilation of excepts from Lewis' writings.<br><br>Often think of it and it is true that evil in fiction is compelling but in life is heavy and boring and stops the flow of life even when doesn't go as far as murder or mass murder. <p></p><i></i>
