from Orwell's 1984:
"The German Nazis and the Russian Communists came very close to us in their methods, but they never had the courage to recognize their own motives. They pretended, perhaps they even believed, that they had seized power unwillingly and for a limited time, and that just round the corner there lay a paradise where human beings would be free and equal. We are not like that. We know that no one ever seizes power with the intention of relinquishing it. Power is not a means, it is an end. One does not establish a dictatorship in order to safeguard a revolution; one makes the revolution in order to establish the dictatorship. The object of persecution is persecution. The object of torture is torture. The object of power is power."

Re: Is Evil more powerful than Good? (disturbing realizations)
Good is much more powerful, but more people have fallen for the seduction that evil offers, to their own destruction. Also, many of the things that people desire are on the path of evil, and in trying to obtain them, they cross over to the wrong side.
Prudence is the knowledge of things to be sought, and those to be shunned.
