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.

About This Quote

While it is true that people can sometimes be good or bad. It’s also true that the choices they have made have been good or bad for them and how they have affected other people. The same goes for people who have been good or bad to you, someone, or some people, thus far. You can’t judge a person by his or her actions in the past when he or she has yet to make a choice about you.
