“The wise are not wise because they make no mistakes. They are wise because they correct their mistakes as soon as they recognize them.”
“Wise is the one who learns from another´s mistakes. Less wise is the one who learns only from his own mistakes. The fool keeps making the same mistakes again and again and never learns from them.”
“The only real difference between a wise man and a fool, Moore knew, was that the wise man tended to make more serious mistakes—and only because no one trusted a fool with really crucial decisions; only the wise had the opportunity to lose battles, or nations.”
“Mistakes makes a man wise, lies makes him common.”
“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.”
“A smart person learns from his mistakes, but a truly wise person learns from the mistakes of others.”
