Consequence Quotes
-
The problem in society we have at the moment is that everyone is afraid of making a mistake. Everyone is afraid of the consequence of error.
Michael Ryan -
Principles are natural laws that are external to us and that ultimately control the consequences of our actions. Values are internal and subjective and represent that which we feel strongest about in guiding our behavior.
Stephen Covey
-
Anyone who has ever accomplished anything of any consequence, didn't know how to get what they want, they only knew that they were going to get it. You don't know how to do something, until after you've done it. Our problem is, we set goals to do what we think we can do or what we've already done. There's no inspiration in that.
Bob Proctor -
Never blame another person for your personal choices - you are still the one who must live out the consequences of your choices.
Caroline Myss -
People thought becoming an adult meant that all your acts had consequences; in fact it was just the opposite.
Chad Harbach -
My role in the government was not to think about narratives and consistency with narratives, but think of the human consequences of rules.
Cass Sunstein -
Principles always have natural consequences attached to them. There are positive consequences when we live in harmony with the principles. There are negative consequences when we ignore them. But because these principles apply to everyone, whether or not they are aware, this limitation is universal. And the more we know of correct principles, the greater is our personal freedom to act wisely.
Stephen Covey -
If the ego is not regularly and repeatedly dissolved in the unbounded hyperspace of the Transcendent Other, there will always be slow drift away from the sense of self as part of nature’s larger whole. The ultimate consequence of this drift is the fatal ennui that now permeates Western Civilization.
Terence McKenna
