A man of genius makes no mistakes; his errors are volitional and are the portals of discovery.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Any man can make mistakes, but only an idiot persists in his error.
All genius is a conquering of chaos and mystery.
Genius is not perfected, it is deepened. It does not so much interpret the world as fertilize itself with it.
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.
We often discover what will do, by finding out what will not do; and probably he who never made a mistake never made a discovery.
A man of genius has been seldom ruined but by himself.
The mistakes of the fool are known to the world, but not to himself. The mistakes of the wise man are known to himself, but not to the world.
He who never made a mistake, never made a discovery.
There was never a genius without a tincture of madness.
The only man who never makes a mistake is the man who never does anything.
