This Makes It Easier for Me to Remember:) - although "evil" not really buddhist concept...
 I like this one too, from fb page Buddha Bless You:
The Eightfold Path 
 
  "The Path is recommended as a means to end the cycle of suffering experienced in life."
 
 This Path consists of:
 Right View
 Right Intention
 Right Speech
 Right Action
 Right Livelihood
 Right Effort
 Right Mindfulness
 Right Concentration
 
 Each step on the Eight Fold Path is preceded by the word “right”, but 
it is not to be confused as "right or wrong" as in a moral judgment. The
 word the Buddha used was samma, which can defined more closely to 
“beneficial” or “this works”.
The Path is divided into three main sections: wisdom, ethical conduct and mental discipline.
 
 Wisdom: Right View and Right Intention are the wisdom path. Right View 
is not about believing in doctrine, but in perceiving the true nature of
 ourselves and the world around us. Right Intention refers to the energy
 and commitment one needs to be fully engaged in Buddhist practice.
 
 Ethical Conduct: Right Speech, Right Action and Right Livelihood are 
the ethical conduct path. This calls us to take care in our speech, our 
actions, and our daily lives to do no harm to others and to cultivate 
wholesomeness in ourselves. This part of the path ties into the 
Precepts.
 
 Mental Discipline: Through Right Effort, Right 
Mindfulness, and Right Concentration we develop the mental discipline to
 cut through delusion. Many schools of Buddhism encourage seekers to 
meditate to achieve clarity and focus of mind.
