The man who does evil to another does evil to himself, and the evil counsel is most evil for him who counsels it.

Hesiod

Even light, which travels so fast it takes most races thousands of years to realize that it travels at all, takes time to journey between the stars.

Douglas Adams

Light thinks it travels faster than anything but it is wrong. No matter how fast light travels, it finds the darkness has always got there first, and is waiting for it.

Terry Pratchett

Fear travels fast. Love travels a little more slowly. Rationale takes a little more consideration.

Russell Brand

The disciplined Christian will be very careful what sort of counsel he seeks from others. Counsel that contradicts the written Word is ungodly counsel. Blessed is the man that walketh not in that.

Elisabeth Elliot

What is evil? Killing is evil, lying is evil, slandering is evil, abuse is evil, gossip is evil, envy is evil, hatred is evil, to cling to false doctrine is evil; all these things are evil. And what is the root of evil? Desire is the root of evil, illusion is the root of evil.

Gautama Buddha

News travels fast in places where nothing much ever happens.

Charles Bukowski

Chankaya is referring there to the probibition of entry of the untrustworthy in the counsel-room. Disloyal persons foolishly speak out the secrets of the counsel not knowing the harmful effects of the same. Disclosing the secrets of the counsel mars the welfare of the country.

Chanakya

Everything you see is based on fact of a event thats already happen, Even light only travels so fast.

Chuck Palahniuk

Trouble travels fast / When you're specially designed for crash testing / Or wearing wool sunglasses in the afternoon.

Jack Johnson

As we look into the future, we are going to need to be stronger and more responsible for our choices in a world where people "call evil good, and good evil." We do not choose wisely if we use our agency in opposition to God's will or to priesthood counsel. Tomorrow's blessings and opportunities depend on the choices we make today.

James E. Faust

Bad news travels fast. Good news takes the scenic route.

Doug Larson

To that Providence, my sons, I hereby commend you, and I counsel you by way of caution to forbear from crossing the moor in those dark hours when the powers of evil are exalted.

Arthur Conan Doyle

People in San Francisco and the East Bay have shown interest, done interviews, and have come to shows. I guess that the news travels fast out of this island that we are on.
