Mistakes Quotes (page 49)

But I do think that when people say 'a learning curve,' they make a mistake. Learning to me always seems to go in a straight, ignorant line and then, every so often, takes a jump straight upward. Diana Wynne Jones
Joan Jett quote: "Don’t let anyone tell you that you can’t do something. Make..."
Don’t let anyone tell you that you can’t do something. Make your own victories. Make your own mistakes. Joan Jett
Umberto Eco quote: "There was no plot... and I discovered it by mistake. William..."
There was no plot... and I discovered it by mistake. William of Baskerville Umberto Eco
No excuses ever, for anyone; that is my principle at the outset. I deny the good intention, the respectable mistake, the indiscretion, the extenuating circumstance. With me there is no giving of absolution or blessing. Albert Camus
Albert Einstein quote: "A desk, some pads, a pencil, and a large basket -- to hold all..."
A desk, some pads, a pencil, and a large basket -- to hold all of mu mistakes. Albert Einstein
I done learned my mistake and learned to do what's right by it. You still trying to get something for nothing. Life don't owe you nothing. You owe it to yourself.- Troy - August Wilson
Wait a minute! Wait a minute! I figured this out. I know what's wrong with what we've done in Iraq. We've been following time as it goes forward. What a classic mistake. Linear time is so pre-9-11. Jon Stewart
I am perfectly convinced that I have both seen, and heard in a manner which should make unbelief impossible, things called spiritual which cannot be taken by a rational being to be capable of explanation by imposture, coincidence, or mistake. Augustus de Morgan
You come before the judgment seat of God full of rebellion and mistakes. Because of his justice he cannot dismiss your sin, but because of his love he cannot dismiss you. So, in an act which stunned the heavens, he punished himself on the cross for your sins. God’s justice and love are equally honored. And you, God’s creation, are forgiven. Max Lucado
I hate slick and pretty things. I prefer mistakes and accidents. Which is why I like things like cuts and bruises - they're like little flowers. I've always said that if you have a name for something, like 'cut' or 'bruise,' people will automatically be disturbed by it. But when you see the same thing in nature, and you don't know what it is, it can be very beautiful. David Lynch
Brian Tracy quote: "The biggest mistake we could ever make in our lives is to..."
The biggest mistake we could ever make in our lives is to think we work for anybody but ourselves. Brian Tracy
The true men of action in our time those who transform the world are not the politicians and statesmen but the scientists. Unfortunately poetry cannot celebrate them because their deeds are concerned with things, not persons, and are therefore speechless. When I find myself in the company of scientists, I feel like a shabby curate who has strayed by mistake into a drawing room full of dukes. W. H. Auden
We are the intelligent elite among animal life on earth and whatever our mistakes, [Earth] needs us. This may seem an odd statement after all that I have said about the way 20th century humans became almost a planetary disease organism. But it has taken [Earth] 2.5 billion years to evolve an animal that can think and communicate its thoughts. If we become extinct she has little chance of evolving another. James Lovelock
Michael Ondaatje quote: "Jung was absolutely right about one thing. We are occupied by..."
Jung was absolutely right about one thing. We are occupied by gods. The mistake is to identify with the god occupying you. Michael Ondaatje
To see and feel one's beloved naked for the first time is one of life's pure, irreducible epiphanies. If there is a true religion in the universe, it must include that truth of contact or be forever hollow. To make love to the one true person who deserves that love is one of the few absolute rewards of being a human being, balancing all of the pain, loss, awkwardness, loneliness, idiocy, compromise, and clumsiness that go with the human condition. To make love to the right person makes up for... Dan Simmons
