To bother about the best method of accomplishing an accident

Summary

This quote suggests that it is pointless to overly concern ourselves with finding the most efficient or meticulous way to achieve an unexpected outcome. Accidental results, by their nature, are unexpected and unplanned. Instead of wasting time and energy trying to meticulously strategize the best approach, it is more meaningful to embrace the spontaneity and learn from the unexpected outcomes that arise naturally.
