Things bad begun make strong themselves by ill

Things bad begun make strong themselves by ill

Summary

This quote suggests that negative actions or behaviors that are started can quickly gain momentum and strength through the continuation of wrongdoing. When we begin down a negative path or make bad choices, they have the ability to develop and worsen with time. Actions like lying or harming others can result in a snowball effect where the negative consequences grow more significant as the initial wrongdoings continue. It serves as a cautionary reminder of the importance of making good choices and avoiding the path of dishonesty and harm.
