Summary

This quote suggests that when it comes to making judgments or decisions, taking second thoughts or reconsidering can often lead to better outcomes. However, when it comes to matters of conscience, one's inner morality and principles, second thoughts may not be as valuable. This implies that one's initial instinct in matters of right and wrong is often more reliable and authentic than overanalyzing or overthinking the situation.
