You can be better or even the best and still not be good.

Enlightenment does not mean making the most of bad situations. It means knowing that every situation is neither good nor bad.

Most priests wish they were as righteous as they seem to most members of their congregations.

People’s goodness or badness exists within not them but our minds.

It is humanly impossible to be an entirely bad or good person.

There’s no such thing as a good or bad person: there are just people who have each been or seem to have been good or bad to you, someone, or some people, thus far.

Looks sure can be deceiving: not every ‘ugly’ person is a ‘bad’ person (or is guilty of whatever it is that they are accused of).

Not all good things are good for us.

The only thing I hate about good people is that they like making their being good people bad people’s problem.
