I agree with this quote because I believe that obedience is key to living a safe and healthy life even though not everyone bides by all the rules. However, I understand that there are many people in this world who would disagree with me as well as this quote, but that is more than okay because not everyone has the same perspective as I do. Obedience is a great challenge and for some people it might be harder to master than others. If the world followed every single rule out there we might have less accidents and people would probably live longer. Keeping in mind that accidents always happen of course, and although many accidents are preventable, some just happen because people decide not to follow protocol. Obedience can simply come from within someone who knows what is right from wrong, in other words it can come naturally for some people. It is those who disagree with rules that find obedience challenging because they are challenging their own ability to obey. In away the fact that many people are not obedient to everything helps shape who we are today. What I mean by this is that if it weren't for the people who "choose the wrong," then it would be hard to tell apart the good people from the bad. Obedience is a test that not everyone will pass, but the ones who do will learn that life is better when you do things the right way.
