Famous quotes containing the word mistaken:

“The truth of the thoughts that are here set forth seems to me unassailable and definitive. I therefore believe myself to have found, on all essential points, the final solution of the problems.

—Ludwig Wittgenstein (1889–1951)

“We are much mistaken if we think that men are always brave from a principle of valor, or women chaste from a principle of modesty.”

“I totter,
And did I not take steps would be tipped over
Like the ideal of some mistaken lover.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
