In the beginning of a tale of two cities it start out with;
"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,"
How come it was all of these things? im writing an essay persuading one point or the other.

I would take either the positive descriptions or the negative descriptions, thereby taking one side, and go with those.
