About This Quote
A person who saves a baby from a burning building after the fact will be called a hero. However, if the person had done something to cause the fire to start in the first place, he or she will be viewed as a villain. In other words, your good deeds don't just go unnoticed. They also have consequences that can come back to haunt you.
