About this Quote

This quote by Sophocles is a warning against attempting to fix problems with more issues. It recommends that when a person attempts to fix a problem with a service that is just as bad, or even worse, than the initial problem, it will just lead to more concerns. This is because the initial problem is not being attended to in a meaningful method, and rather, more problems are being developed. This quote is a tip that when faced with a problem, it is important to take an action back and consider the repercussions of any possible services. It is very important to think of the long-lasting impacts of any action, and to ensure that the service is not simply a momentary repair, however a long lasting one.
