I like the first line.
The second line, though... what on Earth is the difference between "good" and "right" or between "evil" and "bad"? They mean the same thing; "good" and "evil" have just migrated to slightly higher-brow-sounding language.
I'm not trying to defend the quote, but there are no evil microscopes. There are useful microscopes and not useful microscopes.
I'm confused why the original quote contrasts right with bad, rather than with evil, but I think that's what Touitou is trying to say.
