This is the best time and the worst time; This is the age of wisdom, but also the age of stupidity; This is a period of faith, but also a period of doubt; This is a bright season and a dark season; This is the spring of hope and the winter of disappointment; Everyone has everything in front of them, but nothing in front of them; Everyone is going straight to heaven, and everyone is going straight to hell.
It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to Heaven, we were all going direct the other way。
