"Part of making a good decision is just making a decision. You can't always sit and weigh
the pros and cons. There just isn't time for that. Making a good decision means sticking with
your choice and dealing with what comes with it. Being able to deal with the consequences—
that's making a good decision."
- J.X. Burros

- Bono, Bono: In Conversation with Michka Assayas
