Douglas Adams
“A man's errors are his portals of discovery.”
James Joyce
“An error does not become truth by reason of multiplied propagation, nor does truth become error because nobody sees it.”
Mahatma Gandhi
“A man's errors are what make him amiable”
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
“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.”
“We are all full of weakness and errors; let us mutually pardon each other our follies it is the first law of nature.”
Voltaire
“I claim to be a simple individual liable to err like any other fellow mortal. I own, however, that I have humility enough to confess my errors and to retrace my steps.”
