Act 2 Scene 3 Romeo's Haste Prompt C

Friar Lawrence says, "Virtue itself turns vice, being misapplied, And vice sometime by action dignified."
I think this quote is very meaningful and insightful.  Good and evil are not necessarily clear cut like white and black, as we often think it is.  Rather, the Friar explains that all things have the potential to be both good as well as evil.  Something good can become evil when it is misused and done for bad reasons.  Something evil can become good when it is done with honorable intentions and the right reasons.
