Choose a letter: 
I am glad that I paid so little attention to good advice; had I abided by it I might have been saved from some of my most valuable mistakes.

When you back off, it's easier to do mistakes. For me it's better to ski fast.
Bode Miller, American Athlete (1977-  )
In some ways, that's the story of my season - when I wasn't making big mistakes, I was winning races and being on the podium. And when I made mistakes I was still fourth or fifth, just off the podium.
Bode Miller, American Athlete (1977-  )
Tomorrow is always fresh, with no mistakes in it.
Lucy Maud Montgomery, Canadian Educator (1874-1942)
We should regret our mistakes and learn from them, but never carry them forward into the future with us.
Lucy Maud Montgomery, Canadian Educator (1874-1942)
Take chances, make mistakes. That's how you grow. Pain nourishes your courage. You have to fail in order to practice being brave.

Some of the worst mistakes of my life have been haircuts.
Jim Morrison, American Musician (1943-1971)

George Muller, English Clergyman (1805-1898)
I went to Second City, where you learned to make the other actor look good so you looked good and National Lampoon, where you had to create everything out of nothing, and SNL, where you couldn't make any mistakes, and you learned what collaboration was.
Bill Murray, American Actor (1950-  )
If you have the guts to keep making mistakes, your wisdom and intelligence leap forward with huge momentum.
Holly Near, American Musician (1949-  )
Leaping away from my mistakes has propelled me forward. It has great force behind it. It makes for great storytelling.
Holly Near, American Musician (1949-  )
When we make mistakes, say, I'm blessed that I have an opportunity to learn from this.
Holly Near, American Musician (1949-  )
People love to hear the mistakes you've made.
Holly Near, American Musician (1949-  )
Strong people make as many mistakes as weak people. Difference is that strong people admit their mistakes, laugh at them, learn from them. That is how they become strong.
Richard J. Needham, Canadian Cartoonist
We're looking as far ahead as we can, and we don't get penalized for mistakes.
Larry Niven, American Writer (1938-  )
AS for all those mistakes I make - they are on purpose - to teach you how to deal with them.
Donald Norman, American Scientist
The game of golf doesn't come rushing back to you. Last week I made a couple of fundamental mistakes that I probably wouldn't have made in the heat of the battle back when I was in my heyday, and those things have got to come back.
Greg Norman, Australian Athlete (1955-  )
I know my country has not perfected itself. At times, we've struggled to keep the promise of liberty and equality for all of our people. We've made our share of mistakes, and there are times when our actions around the world have not lived up to our best intentions.
Barack Obama, American President (1961-  )
All I ever wanted to do was to make food accessible to everyone; to show that you can make mistakes - I do all the time - but it doesn't matter.
Jamie Oliver, British Celebrity (1975-  )
Mistakes were made is something we heard back in '92, and that has sort of been the Clinton administration's mantra. I can't imagine that Al Gore is going to pick up that statement and carry it through the next election.
Barbara Olson, American Journalist (1955-2001)
