Question

what's a good quote from Beowulf to show the struggle between good and evil?

Answer 1

In the end each clan on the outlying coasts

It's all or nothing in this fight to the death: the good warrior Beowulf against the evil demon Grendel. Things can't get much more clear cut than that.

Answer 4

So times were pleasant for the people there
until finally one, a fiend out of hell,
began to work his evil in the world. (99-101)

Grendel isn't just the enemy – he's a personification, or maybe that should be monster-fication, of everything that is evil. He's literally a "fiend out of hell," a descendant of Cain, inherently rotten.
