“we’re allowed to make a lot of mistakes in our lives, except the mistake that destroy us”
“It seems I make a lot of mistakes and it seems that I am not allowed any.”
“Sometimes … I think parents work so hard to keep us from making their mistakes, they won’t allow us to make our own.”
“A lot of ballads are about the mistakes we inevitably make while trying to figure out how to live our lives.”
“I have to live with my mistakes, but I don’t have to regret them. I regret my actions but I can’t regret the consequences. We all make our own paths in life. Everyone we meet, everything we do, it changes us. It makes us who we are. And, if we’re lucky, we’re given the chance to make things right again.”
“Our lives are not measured by the mistakes we make, but by the moments we live.”
