About This Quote
In our society, we have a tendency to want to get things done right away. We want the doctors to rush into the operating room and fix what's wrong with us immediately. We want our representatives in Washington to get things done right away, even if it's only a quick fix. But this is not always the best way. Sometimes it's better to let things go until they are ready for repair.
