Nothing is bad
What he fought for as a Jurist,
He will have reversed as a Jury.
What he craved as a Have-not,
He will have denied as a Have.
What he indulged in as a Man,
He will have resented as a Woman.
What he imposed as a Ruler,
He will have retaliated as a Subject.
Each one is right for one’s action
From a certain position.
‘There is nothing good or bad
But thinking makes it so.’
