Right is right, even if everyone is against it, and wrong is wrong, even if everyone is for it.

Right is Right even if nobody does it. Wrong is wrong even if everybody is wrong about it.

Right is right even if no one is doing it; wrong is wrong even if everyone is doing it.

There is a commonplace book argument,
Which glibly glides from every vulgar tongue
When any dare a new light to present:
'If you are right, then everybody's wrong.'

So often urged, so loudly and so long:
'If you are wrong, then everybody's right.'
