Consequences Quotes

“Sorry" is something we all say and do when we make mistakes. But do we always consider the people we love who we speak harmful things to? I don't believe so because if we had thought about it, sorry would not have been such a common term now. Sometimes we say too much and act immaturely as adults. We didn't know how much grief and pain we had caused that person. We never considered the reaction, sentiments, and consequences that we might face if what we did turned out to be a matter of life and death.!!!”

“When your personal decisions and behaviors are both self-centered and scheming, yet you expect your children to be considerate and honest—that is called insanity. Whether you like it or not, your living example, far more than your preaching, has the mightiest impact on the behavior of your children. If your life is a picture of deceit, then your example to be emulated is one of deceit. Repent and change before your children adopt the same behaviors.”

“We can deny the destructive nature of our choices. And we can deny the consequences of those choices even when they litter the landscape of our lives and our culture with the burning wreckage of our foolishness. But are we ignorant enough to die by the hand of the ignorance that we’ve perpetually fed because it serves our agenda, or do we wish to live by letting it starve so that it’s no longer feeding on us?”

“A gun safety instructor once told me that if you pull the trigger you’re going to create a hole somewhere. So, in the choices that we make in life we would be wise to consider the fact that we’re going to create a hole. And therefore we might want to consider where that hole should be and where it shouldn’t. But maybe the most significant thing that we need to consider is that most triggers never need to be pulled.”

“The fool will look you directly in the face, point a ridiculing finger squarely at your chest, and confidently inform you that there is no consequence for whatever choice they’re about to make. However, the real consequences don’t occur when the fool is standing amidst the very consequences that they claimed not to exist. Rather, the real consequences occur when they are standing amidst the consequences, all the while absolutely befuddled as to why they’re on fire.”
