error

«It is only an error in judgment to make a mistake, but it shows infirmity of character to adhere to it when discovered»
«It is the highest form of self-respect to admit our errors and mistakes and make amends for them. To make a mistake is only an error in judgment, but to adhere to it when it is discovered shows infirmity of character.»
«Mistakes are a fact of life. It is the response to the error that counts.»
Author: Nikki Giovanni (Poet) | About: Mistakes | Keywords: counts, error, facts of life, response
«It is not the function of our Government to keep the citizen from falling into error; it is the function of the citizen to keep the Government from falling into error.»
«It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them 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; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.»
«I postpone death by living, by suffering, by error, by risking, by giving, by losing.»
«Knowledge rests not upon truth alone, but upon error also.»
«I believe in the fundamental Truth of all the great religions of the world. I believe that they are all God given. I came to the conclusion long ago... that all religions were true and also that all had some error in them.»
«It is error only, and not truth, that shrinks from inquiry.»
«It is easier to perceive error than to find truth, for the former lies on the surface and is easily seen, while the latter lies in the depth, where few are willing to search for it.»
