Under Control
"A harmless man is not a good man.
A good man is a very, very dangerous man, who has that under voluntary control."
— Dr. Jordan B. Peterson
The common assumption that goodness means passivity or weakness. Instead, it suggests that true goodness comes from mastering one’s power and impulses. A good person is capable of great strength and even danger—but chooses restraint and responsibility. It’s about control, not absence of capability.
It reminds us that moral character is not about being harmless, but about wielding power wisely. The danger lies in the potential to do harm, but what defines goodness is the conscious choice not to.
