Give a truly good person power, and they’re still a good person. Give a bad person power, and they’re still a bad person. The question is always about the person in between. The one that isn’t evil, or good, but just ordinary. You don’t always know what an ordinary person is like on the inside. Laurell K. Hamilton
About This Quote

This quote is about the power of people and the difference between good and bad. We all have a choice to be good or bad, but we can't say that we know who is good or bad just by looking at them. Someone may seem like a bad person, but if they can do something good, then they're still good.
