"Right is right, even if everyone is against it; and wrong is wrong, even if everyone is for it."
- William Penn
Reflection: I am pretty skeptical about this statement because there is no way to say that what you are doing is right if everyone is saying its wrong. There is no moral handbook for the world. If that were to exist people could easily discredit it because there is no force that can stop them from doing so. I understand that William Penn wants the world to do the right things even if it is seen in the wrong light, but I wouldn't be able to distinguish the two because there is everyone against you. They have the right in their hands.
