    "What made you interested in that as a concept?" Farah Jasmine Griffin asked Toni Morrison on the idea of "good."
    "For years now, I've just been bored, bored, bored, with evil," Morrison began.

    “Imaginary evil is romantic and varied; real evil is gloomy, monotonous, barren, boring. Imaginary good is boring; real good is always new, marvelous, intoxicating.” - Simone Weil

      @Yen Feng Your repudiation and disgusting use of language in describing your contempt for Ms. Morrison, actually places you in the sty. She wouldn't find your comment interesting or worthy of consideration...in fact, it would be BORING!

    It's sad when less than smart people on here and don't have the facts correct.Toni Morrison was 88 year's old when she died, not 92.

    If someone is running away.... and the person pursuing them shoots them in the back and says THEY'RE AFRAID FOR THEIR LIFE. IT'S A LIE.... A COVERUP TO KILL. :-( Sad but True.
    Likewise.... if someone comes in on a person in their own home or apt (such as in Dallas Tx case) and they KILL YOU or wound you - THEY DID THE CRIME SO THEY NEED TO DO THE TIME whether they're a Policeman or not. Murder is Murder.

    Falsely imprisoning, falsely committing because you’re scared fro your life, when their running away from you.

      That is not exactly what she said. She said, "A Coward with a gun is the most dangerous thing in the world". Adds a lot more meaning.

    Good and evil is best defined by the Bible the last five of the 10 Commandments.
