"Good or bad, hard to say."

Kind of a longish story explaining it, here is the full story:

There was once a farmer in a village and one day, his horse ran away. So, the villagers came up to him and said, "Oooh! That's bad."

He shrugged his shoulders and said, "Good or bad, hard to say."

The next day, the horse returned and brought with it seven wild horses. So, the villagers came up to him and said, "Ah! more horses, that's good."

He shrugged his shoulders and said, "Good or bad, hard to say."

A week later, the farmer's son was riding one of the wild horses, was thrown off it and breaks his leg. So, the villagers came up to him and said, "That's terrible luck."

He shrugged his shoulders and said, "Good or bad, hard to say."

The next week, the king sent word commanding all able men of age to enlist in the army for the upcoming war against a neighbouring kingdom. They came to the village to look for men to enlist but when they see the farmer's son has a broken leg, they pass him by. Now, the villagers came up to him and said, "That's good luck!"

He shrugged his shoulders and said, "Good or bad, hard to say."
