"He who sees different ways to the same……" — Samuel Johnson

"He who sees different ways to the same end, will, unless he watches carefully over his own conduct, lay out too much of his attention upon the comparison of probabilities and the adjustment of expedients, and pause in the choice of his road, till some accident intercepts his journey."

— Samuel Johnson
