Actually, that's a mistranslation. I can't figure out how to say "It is bad for A to have B".

#1 implies that A is bad for wanting B, #2 implies that B is bad if A wants it. I'll use #3.

"to have power, which is more desirable than safety, is to have something bad, true, and that can save"? (please add O to rhs)

I'm using "bad" to modify the line itself, so that we get "is bad to have X". However, this is another mistranslation AAARGH

"to have X is to have something bad" is ok to me, or "to have X is to do something bad to yourself" - I'd use either of thosepic.twitter.com/e4H4PuBpPP

"I desire a long sleep"? (I'm ok with the tense being loose enough to say "I'm sleeping" for "I'm about to sleep")

Yeah, I forgot the strike, it was meant to say literally "I want a short sleep"
