[148] "Bhikkhus, I will teach you the quality of a good person (sappurisadhamma) and the quality of a bad person (asappurisadhamma). Listen to it and attend well; I will speak." "Yes, venerable sir," those bhikkhus replied to the Blessed One. The Blessed One said this: "And what, bhikkhus, is the quality of a bad person? Wrong view (micchādiṭṭhi) … wrong deliverance (micchāvimutti). This, bhikkhus, is called the quality of a bad person. And what, bhikkhus, is the quality of a good person? Right view (sammādiṭṭhi) … right deliverance (sammāvimutti). This, bhikkhus, is called the quality of a good person."
