Can any one help me by re-arranging these words???

BOLT IS FOR GENTLEMAN AND LOCK IS FOR THIEF

(what i mean is its not required for locking the door for a gentleman. Its enough to put a bolt and leave it.

Where as it is required to lock the door to prevent a Thief enter the room. We can't leave the door just bolted.

Thanks in advance to all of you who answer my question.

    a gentleman is not their to steal or force its enough to put a bolt and leave it and he chooses as he pleases.

    A thief is their only for malice reasons and therefore, neccessary precautions are taking to prevent a thief from stealing the door can't be left just bolte,. it has to be lock to prevent an unwilling entry
