Famous quotes containing the word errors:

    “I was duped ... by the Secretary of the treasury [Alexander Hamilton], and made a fool for forwarding his schemes, not then sufficiently understood by me; and of all the errors of my political life, this has occasioned the deepest regret.”
    —Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    “There are two equal and opposite errors into which our race can fall about the devils. One is to disbelieve in their existence. The other is to believe, and to feel an excessive and unhealthy interest in them. They themselves are equally pleased by both errors and hail a materialist or a magician with the same delight.”
    —C.S. (Clive Staples)

    “Truth has not single victories; all things are its organs,—not only dust and stones, but errors and lies.”
