Consent to evil a little, and a great evil will overwhelm us, till no tongue crying out against it will be heard any more. That of which we should have been master will be the master of us. No shame or remorse will save us then. Therefore consent not to this evil at all.
Alan Paton, cited by Martin Gilbert, A History of the Twentieth Century, Volume Two: 1933-1951, pg.772
