It is true that there is no such binary opposition between good and evil. Human nature is complex, and human's attempts to simplify it make us even more incomprehensible to the facts.

For desire, I choose the devil
Brionna 2022-11-23 05:21:28
In human nature, good and evil are always intertwined, and different motivations are stimulated under the temptation, promotion, and oppression of environmental factors. The core essence of environmental factors is to see whether it is in line with the maximization of personal interests. It's a game in which everyone's desires and choices are intertwined, with Maud craving freedom, Miss Saksby craving affluence and high society, and Susan and Mr Rivers wanting the bounty. You can get what you want, as long as you give your soul to the devil. Without exception, everyone chose to obey the devil's command and leave love and justice behind. For the unrestrained freedom and bright sunshine outside the window, Maud spent 15 years of darkness in a dark library full of obscene books, sacrificing the life of another girl of the same age as himself, not to mention the one who planned to frame himself. Market thief, what's the harm? For Susan, a pickpocket who grew up on the dirtiest and poorest streets in London, as long as she spends a month in a big family's manor for nothing, and then sends this young lady who she never knew and enjoys great wealth into a lunatic asylum Get a huge sum of money, why not do it? And Mr Rivers is a complete deceiver, with a handsome appearance and a tongue-in-cheek selfishness and a cold heart. Aunt Saksby, the biggest black hand behind the scenes, waited silently for 21 years for the 21st birthday of the two girls. Yes, everyone has struggles and painful struggles in the middle, but their final choice is the devil.
It is true that there is no such binary opposition between good and evil. Human nature is complex, and human's attempts to simplify it make us even more incomprehensible to the facts.
