About This Quote

A song with such a powerful message is guaranteed to be an anthem of the ages. We all go through life making most of our decisions on impulse and feeling. But, obviously, not all decisions are right for us. Sometimes we need to take time and reflect on what we’ve done.

We need to analyze and gather information and then make a decision. And then we must continue throughout our lives to reflect and learn more information and make the right decisions at right times. That’s what this quote is about.
