The mark of a good action is that it appears inevitable in retrospect.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
It is the mark of a good action that it appears inevitable in retrospect.
Every action has a consequence, so always try to be good.
When an action is once done, it is right or wrong for ever; no accidental failure of its good or evil fruits can possibly alter that.
I believe in taking what happens as inevitable.
Necessity of action takes away the fear of the act, and makes bold resolution the favorite of fortune.
However glorious an action in itself, it ought not to pass for great if it be not the effect of wisdom and intention.
Good actions are a guard against the blows of adversity.
What we anticipate seldom occurs: but what we least expect generally happens.
No act is of itself either good or bad. Only its place in the order of things makes it good or bad.
I like to encourage people to realize that any action is a good action if it's proactive and there is positive intent behind it.
