I think what the statement means is that if you try to take a short cut don't be surprised that it may just end up creating other/more problems. You mind as well go ahead and just do something the long and correct way to begin with because having to fix the problems or do things over again because you are tyring to make things easier will usually just create more work in the long run. I do sort of agree with the concept of the quote for many things.

I don't know...sort of depends who says the quote and to who they are talking to I'm not sure it would fly too well with a married executive using it on his secretary. ;-) And, I do like to think each of us is complete by ourselves. I like your quotes though. Keep them coming. I appreciate you doing this, and enjoy reading the quotes every day, even the ones I don't totally agree with.

A good quote.......how often life does get in the way!
