Mistakes are painful when they happen, but years later a collection of mistakes is what is called experience.
Denis Waitley
Experience is the name every one gives to their mistakes.
Oscar Wilde
Take chances, make mistakes. That's how you grow. Pain nourishes your courage. You have to fail in order to practice being brave.
Mary Tyler Moore
Mistakes are, after all, the foundations of truth, and if a man does not know what a thing is, it is at least an increase in knowledge if he knows what it is not.
Carl Gustav Jung
If you're not making mistakes, you're not taking risks, and that means you're not going anywhere. The key is to make mistakes faster than the competition, so you have more changes to learn and win.
John W. Holt, Jr.
Mistakes are their own instructors
Horace
Our mistakes from the past are just that: mistakes. And they were necessary to make in order to become the wiser person we became.
Bill Maher
Mistakes are a part of being human. Appreciate your mistakes for what they are: precious life lessons that can only be learned the hard way. Unless it's a fatal mistake, which, at least, others can learn from.
Al Franken
No one who cannot rejoice in the discovery of his own mistakes deserves to be called a scholar.
Donald Foster
Assert your right to make a few mistakes. If people can't accept your imperfections, that's their fault.
Dr. David M. Burns
To avoid situations in which you might make mistakes may be the biggest mistake of all.
Peter McWilliams
Mistakes fail in their mission of helping the person who blames them on the other fellow.
Henry S. Haskins
No man ever became great or good except through many and great mistakes.
William E. Gladstone
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
