Ben Franklin once said : Great good nature without prudence is a great misfortune... Well... Etymology too is a form of Art.. During 98 -2000... I had to accommodate myself from my grandpas place for educational purpose ..one fine day had a chance to meet up with the Etymologist ...whos wisdom was powerful enough to distinguish the good and the evil... While conversing he was mentioning the German proverb as an Example that follows : Women are Necessary Evil ... Well my curiosity was at peak that time then I had to drill the Etymologist by questions .. Isnt that a negative phrase.. I asked. But I always go to origin to know where it comes from... He replied... He said : people are people wether they are negative or positive it dosnt deee really matter for a person who sees people as they are... As for as my research concerns its not the people who uses words or the deeds that brings negative results but thier state of mind that triggers them to do so.. Well in the end he uttered one more verb in quiet note : When Roses fall, thorns remains... Now this one relates to the previous though the origin is different am I right... I asked Havent I told you its just the consciousness that is connected not people.. He replied.. I laughed and said : Etymology is an Art indeed... Sigh..!
