How can I get hurt by not using caution? - Caution/cautiousness - TouchPoints

Proverbs 14:16The wise are cautious and avoid danger; fools plunge ahead with great confidence.

Proverbs 19:2Zeal without knowledge is not good; a person who moves too quickly may go the wrong way.

Proverbs 22:3A prudent person foresees the danger ahead and takes precautions; the simpleton goes blindly on and suffers the consequences.
