The Bard said everything best, of course, and he's making my point here but he's making it hyperbolically: "'Tis nothing good or bad / But thinking makes it so."
Shakespeare a spus-o cel mai bine, fireşte, şi el susţine teza mea aici, dar o face hiperbolic: "Nimic nu-i bun ori rău / Dar gându-l face-aşa."
