Ardy, that's a comforting thought, as I have a tendency -- a very bad one, I've always thought - to make major decisions (after much anguished worry) almost on a whim. I think I've always felt I can never know all the details that affect the decision, and if I did know them, could never properly weigh them - so (with more worry than necessary) I tend to close my eyes and jump.
I'm sure I've been burned at some time or another, but not enough to make me really notice.
I'm not sure I'd recommend this as a way to make decisions; in fact I'm fairly sure I wouldn't. But the quote is certainly reassuring!
