A dialogue between a policeman and student
Policeman : Excuse me. Stop. The light is red.
Student : I'm sorry. I did not notice.
Policeman : Most of the people are in hurry.
Student : If a man is in a hurry, he has to violate a signal.
Policeman : The signals are for you people.
Student : But sometimes, they are very long.
Policeman : It depends. Laws are for every body.
Student : I don't agree. Laws are usually for the poor.
Policeman : No one is rich or poor in the eyes of a law. It is equal to all.
Student : But it usually does not happen. The poor are challenged and fined, not the rich.
Policeman : You are mistaken. Throughout my service, I have treated equally.
Student : Exceptions are there. You may do your duty honestly.
Policeman : It is the same with everybody. If you are good, everyone is good.
Student : It is not a general practice. I have different experience. If you do a good turn, you get a bad one.
Policeman : No. Always keep in mind. Do good and have good.
Student : It is an old saying now.
Policeman : This is universal truth. It is ever green. It never becomes old.
Student : O.K. If you say, I agree.
Policeman : Thank you. One thing always keep in mind. Don't find fault with others. Always sweep before your own door.
Student : Thanks for your advice. Good-bye.
Policeman : Good-bye.
