C.N. Douglas, comp.  Forty Thousand Quotations: Prose and Poetical.  1917.
 
Consideration
 
  That should be maturely considered which can be decided but once.
Old Saying.    
  1
        Consideration, like an angel came
And whipp’d the offending Adam out of him,
Leaving his body as a paradise,
To envelope and contain celestial spirits.
Shakespeare.    
  2
  Better it is toward the right conduct of life, to consider what will be the end of a thing, than what is the beginning of it: for what promises fair at first may prove ill, and what seems at first a disadvantage, may prove very advantageous.
Wells.
