A man of genius makes no mistakes. His errors are volitional and are the portals of discovery.
James Joyce
They defend their errors as if they were defending their inheritance.
Edmund Burke
So foolish is the heart of man that he ever puts his hope in the future, learning nothing from his past errors and fancying that tomorrow must be better than today.
Mika Waltari

William James
From the errors of others, a wise man corrects his own.
Publilius Syrus
No cause is helpless if it is just. Errors, no matter how popular, carry the seeds of their own destruction.

David Hume
To make no mistakes is not in the power of man; but from their errors and mistakes the wise and good learn wisdom for the future.
Plutarch
A man of genius makes no mistakes; his errors are volitional and are the portals of discovery.
James Joyce
No errors of opinion can possibly be dangerous in a country where opinion is left free to grapple with them

Unknown
Experience is a revelation in the light of which we renounce our errors of youth for those of age.

If you shut your door to all errors truth will be shut out.
Rabindranath Tagore
