(pretty lame sentence to quote from such a great book, but oh well)

As Mervin Lerner has pointed out, the people awakened by Genovese's screams at 3 A.M. were alone (or at least removed from bystanders) in their apartments and could have called the police anonymously.

The myth of pure evil is the belief that evil exists separately from individuals, or that evil exists within people as something like what we traditionally think of as an evil "force," driving them to perform evil acts.
