I think half the trick to lecturing Sasuke is to not sound like you're lecturing -- just dump an idea and back off. I think, for example, that Kakashi actually did get through to him just before he ran off to Orochimaru -- he had a sort of stunned expression after that conversation -- but the smack upside the head wasn't quite strong enough to outweigh other factors.
