It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to heaven, we were all doing direct the other way - in short, the period was so far like the present period, that some of its noisiest authorities insisted on its being received, for good or for evil, in the superlative degree of comparison only.

    یہ وقت کا بہترین دور تھا ، یہ بدترین اوقات تھا ، یہ عقل کا دور تھا ، یہ بے وقوف کا دور تھا ، یہ عقیدہ کا عہد تھا ، یہ عدم اعتماد کا عہد تھا ، یہ روشنی کا موسم تھا ، یہ اندھیروں کا موسم تھا ، یہ امید کا موسم بہار تھا ، مایوسی کا موسم سرما تھا ، ہمارے سامنے سب کچھ تھا ، ہمارے سامنے کچھ نہیں تھا ، ہم سب سیدھے جنت کی طرف جارہے تھے ، میں سب دوسرے راستے سے کر رہے تھے۔ مختصر یہ کہ یہ دور موجودہ دور کی طرح تھا ، کیونکہ اس کے کچھ شور مچانے والے حکام نے صرف موازنہ کی اعلی درجے میں ، اچھ orے یا برے کام پر ، اس کے وصول ہونے پر اصرار کیا۔
