Erik Pevernagie
“During the play-act of life, errors can clash with our conventional truth and compel us to prepare new ground for another truth concept that will replace the old truth model. Be that as it may, let us fly on the wings of our inspiration, value the day, enjoy the now, and be ready because the new blueprint may only remain valid until it dies by natural death on its turn. (“Measuring spaceâ€�)”
Erik Pevernagie

Ludwik Fleck
“Whether we like it or not, we can never sever our links with the past, complete with all its errors. It survives in accepted concepts, in the presentation of problems, in the syllabus of formal education, in everyday life, as well as in language and institutions. Concepts are not spontaneously created but are determined by their "ancestors." That which has occurred in the past is a greater cause of insecurity—rather, it only becomes a cause of insecurity—when our ties with it remain unconscious and unknown.”
Ludwik Fleck, Genesis and Development of a Scientific Fact

Ludwik Fleck
“Discovery is thus inextricably interwoven with what is known as error. To recognize a certain relation, many another relation must be misunderstood, denied, or overlooked. The operation of cognition [Erkenntnisphysiologie] is analogous to the physiology of movement. To move a limb, an entire so-called myostatic system must be immobilized to provide a basis of fixation. Every movement consists of two active processes; namely, motion and inhibition. The corresponding features in the operation of cognition are purposive, directed determination and cooperative abstraction, which complement one another.”
Ludwik Fleck, Genesis and Development of a Scientific Fact

Aysha Taryam
“The road to redemption is a treacherous one that the accused must walk through in darkness but if we don’t shine the light then there is no hope for anyone finding their way to the other side.”
Aysha Taryam

“When I am so certain—expressing my views, asserting my narrative, and moving my agenda forward—I cannot hear God. His voice is quiet; a whisper that is easily missed in the din and clamor of the world. But I will hear Him: either now (because I step away from my insistence that I am right) or in the end (because all of my nonsense will flee away in His presence). And when I hear Him, error will fall silent and truth will shine forth like the beautiful light of dawn after a dark and lonely night.”
Jean-Michel Hansen

Craig Russell
“Subí a mi habitación y me serví un whisky. Gran error: al primer trago me entraron arcadas. Me estaba haciendo viejo para aquellos trotes.”
Craig Russell, The Long Glasgow Kiss

Jordan B. Peterson
“La aceptación de la información anómala aporta terror y posibilidad, revolución y transformación. El rechazo del hecho insoportable asfixia la adaptación y estrangula la vida.”
Jordan B. Peterson, Maps of Meaning: The Architecture of Belief

Jordan B. Peterson
“Escogemos un camino u otro en cada punto de decisión de nuestra vida, y acabamos siendo la suma total de nuestras decisiones. Al rechazar nuestros errores, ganamos una seguridad a corto plazo, pero renunciamos a nuestra identidad con el proceso que nos permite transcender nuestras debilidades y tolerar nuestras vidas dolorosas y limitadas.”
Jordan B. Peterson, Maps of Meaning: The Architecture of Belief

Carlo Rovelli
“Our fear of death seems to me to be an error of evolution.”
Carlo Rovelli, The Order of Time

“Materialism is the essence of every destructive action taken by humanity, even though most who practice it would have no knowledge of it by name. Most people, being well-meaning but misinformed and physically unable to undergo the cognitive process of holistic vision, drift towards materialistic ideas and strive towards what gives them personal physical comfort and wealth.”
Brett Stevens

“Remember, every mile of road has two miles of ditches, and we must be careful not to fall into either ditch. We want to be broad-minded enough to allow for differences of opinion, but not so open-minded as to tolerate doctrinal error or to make excuses for sin in the church. Right is right, and wrong is wrong, and we must be careful not to let the lines blur.”
Joseph Stoll, Honey from the Hive: 366 Daily Devotionals

Joseph Heller
“Any possibilities that I might be mistaken about her humor were dispelled by her first words.”
Joseph Heller, God Knows

Baden Powell
“But the real way to get happiness is by giving out happiness to other people. Try and leave this world a little better than you found it and when your turn comes to die, you can die happy in feeling that at any rate you have not wasted your time but have done your best."

[Misattributed to Baden Powell the English mathematician and Church of England priest. Properly attributed to Sir Robert Baden-Powell the founder of the Scout Movement]”
Baden Powell

Raimon Samsó
“Renunciar a los errores es renunciar al éxito. Si la gente supiera que las personas brillantes cometen un alto índice de errores, comenzarían a perder el absurdo miedo al error.”

“We may consider something wrong due to our lack of knowledge, but in the face of overwhelming evidence only an animal refuses to change their outlook and persists with their delusions.”
Abhijit Naskar, Solo Standing on Guard: Life Before Law

Gotthold Ephraim Lessing
“I mean this. â€� Why should we not see in all the positive religions
simply the process whereby the human understanding in all places can
alone develop, and will develop further still, instead of reacting with either
mockery or anger to one of them? If nothing in the best of worlds deserves
this scorn, this indignation on our part, why should the religions alone
deserve it? Can God’s hand be at work in everything except in our errors?”
Gotthold Ephraim Lessing, Philosophical & Theological Writings

“Truth takes reminding: close your eyes for one minute. Open. Colors changed.”
Karl Kristian Flores, The Goodbye Song

Kristian Ventura
“To trust the future will take care of itself is to deny an obvious and necessary revolution.”
Karl Kristian Flores, The Goodbye Song

“You pay full price for each error.
You pay full price for each fault
You pay full price for each inaccuracy
You pay full price for each omission
You pay full price for each slip
You pay full price for each blunder
You pay full price for each miscalculation


You pay full price for each misunderstanding
You pay full price for each flaw
You pay full price for each oversight
You pay full price for each misinterpretation
You pay full price for each fallacy.”
-human bot

J.S. Felts
“Don't fall victim to believing something is completely wrong because you found an error contained therein. In the same way, don't believe something to be right because it contains a single truth.”
J.S. Felts, Ageless Wisdom: A Treasury of Quotes to Motivate & Inspire

Avi Loeb
“La humanidad ha pensando muy pocas veces en el bienestar colectivo, tanto durante los últimos siglos como en la actualidad. Entre los malos hábitos en que incurrimos, optamos repetidamente por los beneficios a corto plazo antes que por los beneficios a largo plazo.”
Avi Loeb, Extraterrestrial: The First Sign of Intelligent Life Beyond Earth

Craig D. Lounsbrough

“In reality every human being makes mistakes continually throughout life and does something silly at times. Learning to accept the fact that you are human with flaws and faults is a great relief. It means that making mistakes and errors is normal. Learning to laugh at yourself when you do something silly or when you say something amiss is part of life and being Human. I don’t know anyone who is perfect, thank goodness! Admit your mistakes and shortcomings, but do it with a smile. Also don’t be afraid to say, ‘I don’t know.”
Steve Peters

“Accepting personal responsibility. An amazing thing happens when you bite the bullet and, for better or for worse, take personal responsibility for your behavior, attitude, and mistakes. It is so refreshing to have someone step up and flat out say, “I tried this, it didn’t work. Here is how I am going to fix it.â€� That is a person you know you can trust, one that you can count on to get the job done. The immediate respect you gain from your teammates when you take ownership and responsibility for errors is very powerful.”
Dan Brodsky-Chenfeld, Above All Else
