"Your best teacher is your last mistake...." - Quote by Ralph Nader

“We have two parties who are basically hijacking our country for their corporate paymasters. And if we focus on 535 members of Congress, that's not all that many, we're going to see a fast turnaround. So focus all your concerns, all the information, the kind of agenda the Green Party has. Turn it right on your Senators and Representatives.”

“Power has to be insecure to be responsive.”

“I think most Americans are ready for waging peace and not just brutalizing our foreign policy which is boomeranging against us.”

“I'm always trying to tackle subjects that tax me and make me think. That's the key to staying young at heart. The brain has to be exercised the same as the rest of the body.”

“The art of remembering is the art of thinking. When we wish to fix a new thing in either our own mind or a pupil's, our conscious effort should not be so much to impress and retain it as to connect it with something else already there. The connecting is the thinking; and, if we attend clearly to the connection, the connected thing will certainly be likely to remain within recall.”

“Sell your cleverness and buy bewilderment.”

“Mistakes live in the neighbourhood of truth and therefore delude us.”

“Mistakes are the stepping stones to success.”

“The only man who never makes a mistake is the man who never does anything.”
