Select a quote from page170. do you agree or disagree with it?

   I selected a quote that George Washington lived by. He quoted that you should "Think before you speak." I agree with this quote for various reasons.
   I can agree with this quote because of the bad results that could happen from saying something without using your mind. For example, you could end up insulting the wrong person, and they can react with force and hurt you because you decided to not think.You could also hurt a friends' feelings and they might not want to forgive you for what you said.
   Even though there are bad effects of not thinking before you speak, good effects could also be possible. You could be a detective figuring out a way to interrogate someone who knows something valuable to the investigation. You could be a lawyer trying to prove that your client isn't guilty.
  The quote "Think before you speak" could lead to both, bad and good results.
