Quotation #40827 from Classic Quotes:

Besides, what matters, when it comes to self-control, isn't so much willpower as vision-the ability to see the future, so that the long-run consequences of our short-run choices are vividly clear. In that sense, our shortcomings in this arena are really failures of imagination.
Daniel Akst, We Have Met the Enemy: Self-Control in an Age of Excess, 2011
