Famous quotes containing the word mistakes:

    “Logic must look after itself.... In a certain sense, we cannot make mistakes in logic.”
    —Ludwig Wittgenstein (1889–1951)

    “Feeling that you have to be the perfect parent places a tremendous and completely unnecessary burden on you. If we’ve learned anything from the past half-century’s research on child development, it’s that children are remarkably resilient. You can make lots of mistakes and still wind up with great kids.”
    —Lawrence Kutner (20th century)

    “We are compelled by the theory of God’s already achieved perfection to make Him a devil as well as a god, because of the existence of evil. The god of love, if omnipotent and omniscient, must be the god of cancer and epilepsy as well.... Whoever admits that anything living is evil must either believe that God is malignantly capable of creating evil, or else believe that God has made many mistakes in His attempts to make a perfect being.”
    —George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
