About This Quote

A granny is an old-fashioned witch. She doesn’t do good for people, she does right by them. This quote speaks to the fact that one can be a good witch or a bad witch. You can do good to people or you can do bad to them.

If you are a bad witch, it is easy to think that you will never change your ways, but the best witches are the ones who know that they are capable of changing their ways. The problem is that they don’t believe they can change themselves. The quote is saying that if you are a good witch, then you will always do good things for others, but if you are a bad witch, you are capable of doing bad things for others as well.
