There is an old illusion. It is called good and evil.

Summary

This quote implies that the concept of good and evil is an illusion or a mistaken belief. It suggests that our perception and categorization of actions or individuals as good or evil is not an inherent or absolute truth, but rather a subjective interpretation shaped by societal norms, personal biases, and limited perspectives. It challenges the binary nature of morality and raises questions about the complexity and subjectivity of human behavior and motivations.
