| Mistakes, scandals, and failures no longer signal catastrophe. The crucial thing is that they be made credible, and that the public be made aware of the efforts being expended in that direction.

Believing that personal gain is made by crushing others;
Worrying about things that cannot be changed or corrected;
Insisting that a thing is impossible because we cannot accomplish it;
Refusing to set aside trivial preferences;
Neglecting development and refinement of the mind;
Attempting to compel others to believe and live as we do. Marcus Tullius Cicero Quotes |

| "To avoid situations in which you might make mistakes may be the biggest mistake of all." Peter McWilliams Quotes |
|
| The world always makes the assumption that the exposure of an error is identical with the discovery of truth--that the error and truth are simply opposite. They are nothing of the sort. What the world turns to, when it is cured on one error, is usually simply another error, and maybe one worse than the first one. H. L. Mencken Quotes |
| "But have you ever noticed one encouraging thing about me, Marilla? I never make the same mistake twice. Oh don't you see, Marilla? There must be a limit to the mistakes one person can make, and when I get to the end of them, then I'll be through with them. That's a very comforting thought." Lucy Maud Montgomery Quotes |
| "The drop hollows the stone not by force but by often falling." Ovid Quotes |
| [Latin: Gulta cavat lapidem non vi sed saepe cadendo] Ovid Quotes |
| We've all heard that we have to learn from our mistakes, but I think it's more important to learn from successes. If you learn only from your mistakes, you are inclined to learn only errors. Norman Vincent Peale Quotes |
|
| "The only real mistake is the one from which we learn nothing." John Powell Quotes |
| Often we can achieve an even better result when we stumble yet are willing to start over, when we don't give up after a mistake, when something doesn't come easily but we throw ourselves into trying, when we're not afraid to appear less than perfectly polished. By prizing heartfulness above faultlessness, we may reap more from our effort because we’re more likely to be changed by it. We learn and grow and are transformed not so much by what we do but by why and how we do it. Sharon Salzberg Quotes |
| Always acknowledge a fault. This will throw those in authority off their guard and give you an opportunity to commit more. Mark Twain Quotes |
| To make mistakes is human; to stumble is commonplace; to be able to laugh at yourself is maturity. William Arthur Ward Quotes |
| If one dream should fall and break into a thousand pieces, never be afraid to pick one of those pieces up and begin again. Flavia Weedn Quotes |

| I recall that my workshop leaders were tactful in their ways of acquainting me with my shortcomings as a writer. So much so that I hardly realized they were doing it. I want always to keep that sort of thing in mind when I'm teaching. The way you get better in everything in this life is to make mistakes. Otherwise you're probably doing it right by accident. But you have to do everything wrong before you can really start with some authority to do it right. Tobias Wolff Quotes |

|
| Reason and free inquiry are the only effectual agents against error. Thomas Jefferson Quotes |
| It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled, or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes short again and again, who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, and spends himself in a worthy cause, who at best knows achievement and who at the worst if he fails at least fails while daring greatly so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.From a speech given in Paris at the Sorbonne in 1910 Theodore Roosevelt Quotes |
| Strong people make as many mistakes as weak people. Difference is that strong people admit their mistakes, laugh at them, learn from them. That is how they become strong. Richard Needham Quotes |

How was the world to understand one who rejected an offer of power and control? Joan B. Campbell Quotes |

| He that never changes his opinions, never corrects his mistakes, will never be wiser on the morrow than he is today. Tryon Edwards Quotes |
|
| He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt. He has been given a large brain by mistake, since for him the spinal cord would fully suffice. This disgrace to civilization should be done away with at once. Heroism at command, senseless brutality, and all the loathsome nonsense that goes by the name of patriotism, how violently I hate all this, how despicable and ignoble war is; I would rather be torn to shreds than be part of so base an action! It is my conviction that killing under the cloak of war is nothing but an act of murder. Albert Einstein Quotes |
| It is in fact nothing short of a miracle that the modern methods of instruction have not yet entirely strangled the holy curiosity of inquiry; for what this delicate little plant needs more than anything, besides stimulation, is freedom.

| Anyone who has never made a mistake has never tried anything new. Albert Einstein Quotes |
| The fear of death is the most unjustified of all fears, for there's no risk of accident for someone who's dead. Albert Einstein Quotes |

|
| Let me never fall into the vulgar mistake of dreaming that I am persecuted whenever I am contradicted. Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes |

| We are the men of intrinsic value, who can strike our fortunes out of ourselves, whose worth is independent of accidents in life, or revolutions in government: we have heads to get money, and hearts to spend it. George Farquhar Quotes |
| The big mistake that men make is that when they turn thirteen or fourteen and all of a sudden they've reached puberty, they believe that they like women. Actually, you're just horny. It doesn't mean you like women any more at twenty-one than you did at ten. Jules Feiffer Quotes |
| It is not strange ... to mistake change for progress. Millard Fillmore Quotes |
|
| Experience is what allows us to repeat our mistakes, only with more finesse! Derwood Fincher Quotes |
| It's very good for an idea to be commonplace. The important thing is that a new idea should develop out of what is already there so that it soon becomes an old acquaintance.

| A mistake proves that someone stopped talking long enough to do something. Phoenix Flame Quotes |

|
| Today I accidentally stepped on a snail on the sidewalk in front of our house. And I thought, I too am like that snail. I build a defensive wall around myself, a 'shell' if you will. But my shell isn't made out of a hard, protective substance. Mine is made out of tinfoil and paper bags. Jack Handey [Deep Thoughts] Quotes |
| You can't tell me that cowboys, when they're branding cattle, don't sort of 'accidentally' brand each other every once in a while. It's their way of letting off stress. Jack Handey [Deep Thoughts] Quotes |

| We may pretend that we're basically moral people who make mistakes, but the whole of history proves otherwise. Terry Hands Quotes |

| Never mistake motion for action. Ernest Miller Hemingway Quotes |
| Success seems to be connected with action. Successful men keep moving. They make mistakes, but they don't quit. Conrad Hilton Quotes |

|
| The greatest mistake you can make is to be continually fearing you will make one. Elbert Hubbard Quotes |
| The chess board is the world, the pieces are the phenomena of the universe, the rules of the game are what we call the laws of Nature. The player on the other side is hidden from us.

| Get rid of imagined guilt. You did the best you could at the time, all things considered. If you made mistakes, learn to accept that we are all imperfect. Only hindsight is 20-20. If you are convinced that you have real guilt, consider professional or spiritual counseling (with a competent and trustworthy counselor). If you believe in God a pastor can help you believe also in God's forgiveness. Amy Hillyard Jensen Quotes |
|
| You're not the only one who's made mistakes, but they're the only things that you can truly call your own. Billy Joel Quotes |
| It is the common failing of totalitarian regimes that they cannot really understand the nature of our democracy. They mistake dissent for disloyalty.

| Experience is that marvelous thing that enables you to recognize a mistake when you make it again. Franklin P. Jones Quotes |

| There are no mistakes, no coincidences. All events are blessings given to us to learn from. Dr. Elizabeth Kubler-Ross Quotes |
|
| Class has a sense of humor. It knows that a good laugh is the best lubricant for oiling the machinery of human relations. Class never makes excuses. It takes its lumps and learns from past mistakes. Class bespeaks an aristocracy unrelated to ancestors or money. Some extremely wealthy people have no class at all, while others who are struggling to make ends meet are loaded with it. Class is real. You can't fake it. Class never tries to build itself up by tearing others down. Class is already up and need not attempt to look better by making others look worse. Everyone is comfortable with the person who has class because he is comfortable with himself. If you have class, you've got it made. If you don't have class, no matter what else you have, it won't make up for it. Ann Landers Quotes |
| A lot of people mistake a short memory for a clear conscience. Doug Larson Quotes |
| I believe it is an established maxim in morals that he who makes an assertion without knowing whether it is true or false is guilty of falsehood, and the accidental truth of the assertion does not justify or excuse him. Abraham Lincoln Quotes |
| Men make the mistake of thinking that because women can't see the sense in violence, they must be passive creatures. It's just not true. In one important way, at least, men are the passive sex. Given a choice, they will always opt for the status quo. They hate change of any kind, and they fight against it constantly. On the other hand, what women want is stability, which when you stop to think about it is a very different animal. Eric Lustbader Quotes |
| The man who makes no mistakes does not usually make anything. William Connor Magee Quotes |
|
| It's always helpful to learn from your mistakes because then your mistakes seem worthwhile. Garry Marshall Quotes |

| Remember your past mistakes just long enough to profit by them. Dan McKinnon Quotes |
