Quotes about mistake:
What is tolerance? It is the endowment of humanity. We are all steeped in weakness and error; let us forgive each other our stupidities, that is the first law of nature.
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.
Quotes for: truth
To be able to discern what is true as true and what is false as false — this is the mark and character of intelligence.
Truth prevails only to the extent that we successfully assert it. The victory of reason can only be the victory of rational people.
