"Table your mistakes, learn from them, then..." - Quote by Confucius

“At seventy, I could follow the dictates of my own heart; for what I desired no longer overstepped the boundaries of right.”

“Return good for good; return evil with justice.”

“Bird in hand makes it harder to blow nose.”

“War is mainly a catalogue of blunders.”

“Do not fear mistakes.”

“Habit is the nursery of errors.”

“Every piece of marble has a statue in it waiting to be released by a person of sufficient skill to chip away the unnecessary parts. Just as the sculptor is to the marble, so is education to the soul. It releases it. For only educated people are free people. You cannot create a statue by smashing the marble with a hammer, and you cannot by the force of arms release the spirit or the soul of people.”

“Learning is not child's play; we cannot learn without pain.”

“I think you should learn about writing from everybody who has ever written that has anything to teach you”
