Or was it: "All that is necessary for evil to triumph is for good men
to do nothing", or maybe "All that is necessary for the triumph of evil
is for good men to do nothing", or "All that is necessary for evil to
triumph is for enough good men to do nothing", or even "The only thing
that has to happen in this world for evil to triumph is for good men
to do nothing"?
