Her quote comes from Edmund Burke (we think; that attribution is contested), and was painted on the wall of her high school psychology classroom:

“The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.” 

A couple other quotes we discuss in this episode are from St. Teresa of Calcutta:

“I do not pray for success; I ask for faithfulness.”

“We have the obligation to speak the truth but we don’t have to convince anyone.” 

and St. Augustine:

“The truth is like a lion. You don't have to defend it. Let it loose. It will defend itself.”

Leah also mentioned the film, The Business of Birth Control.
