Yeah, what the last poster said, like "The ends justify the means." It releases people from moral obligation, as long as the net result is OK then the process by which you get there doesn't matter. I don't agree with that!

The saying is "All's well that ends well" and it means that if things turn out okay, then who cares how many people you messed up or what happened along the way. Basically, "The end justifies the means.", to quote another idiom.

The saying is "All's well that ends well" and it means that if things turn out okay, it doesn't matter if the process got screwed up, or didn't go the way you thought it should, as long as it had a happy ending.

all's well THAT ends well. It means that if the end is happy, everyone who needs to be well is well and safe and had whatever problem they had along the way solved.

All's well that end's well.
If everything turns out for the best, then all is right with the world
