I think it all boils down to excessive selfishness and/or anger. Even if someone is insane they need to be selfish and/or angry to want to cause harm. Selfishness and anger appear evil but the "evil' person thinks that their acts are justified by their needs or the things that happened to them. Most violent people were abused as children or victims of violence later in life.
Harmful is a more accurate word than evil. Evil suggests that there is some external force that motivates people. I don't believe that, we act in evil ways when we don't control our selfishness and/or anger.
