re: Is it true that the road to hell is paved with good intentions?

My understanding is that the phrase has two meanings, depending on the circumstances. It can mean actions planned with good intentions, but not acted on, lead to nothing, at best, or the wrong thing happening, at worst. The second meaning, as mentioned, above, is that good intentions, in and of themselves, aren't what matters; it's the consequences of the actions that matter. Or, beware unintended consequences! Anyway, that's my take.
