Our greatest moral regrets are always preceded by a series of unwise choices.

One of the primary reasons we don't seek counsel from the wise people around us is that we already know what we are going to hear--and we just don't want to hear it.

You don't sit around looking for reasons to do the right thing; it's the bad decisions that require creative reasoning.

None of us plan--or intend--to get into trouble. The problem is, we don't plan not to.

Do you know why people are prone to make such foolish moral decisions? Because something always whispers to us that our situations are unique: Nobody has ever felt this way before.

While nobody plans to mess up his life, the problem is that few of us plan not to.

Just because there isn't a "Thou shalt not" attached to a situation does not necessarily mean it is a "Thou shalt.

God, I want what you want more than I want what I want.
