“we’re allowed to make a lot of mistakes in our lives, except the mistake that destroy us”

“I make lots of mistakes. I try hard not to make the same mistake more than three or four times.”

“People make mistakes. I will make mistakes in the future, too… I think we have learnt a lot from this and that it has also been part of the training in our preparation for kinghood.”

“A man's allowed to make lots of small mistakes, and there's nothing wrong with that. But if the mistakes are big ones and they weigh him down, his only solution is to stop taking himself seriously. It's the only way to avoid suffering - suffering, prolonged, can be fatal.”

“Making mistakes is a lot better than not doing anything.”

“And suddenly the circle came together for me. We were as a civilization making one big mistake, a mistake that was understandable because we had been raised to make it. We had been culturally indoctrinated to believe it to be not a mistake at all, but rather a normal and healthy habit. But this mistake was killing us as individuals just as it was destroying our land and our forests and our rivers. We were eating dead animals, and it wasn't working. If those animals had set out to take their revenge on us, they couldn't have done a better job.”

“We shall make mistakes; and if we let these mistakes frighten us from our work we shall show ourselves weaklings.”

“Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes. Art is knowing which ones to keep.”

“Although we all make mistakes in life, the problems occur when we try to hide our mistakes, to cover them up rather than to learn from them and allow other people to learn from them.”

“We tell our young managers: 'Don't be afraid to make a mistake. But make sure you don't make the same mistake twice.”
