A few observation and much reasoning lead to error; many observations and a little reasoning to truth.
Alexis Carrel
A hallucination is a fact, not an error; what is erroneous is a judgment based upon it.
Bertrand Russell
A philosopher is, no doubt, entitled to examine even those distinctions that are to be found in the structure of all languages... in that case, such a distinction may be imputed to a vulgar error, which ought to be corrected in philosophy.
Thomas Reid
A small error in the former will produce an enormous error in the latter.
Henri Poincare
A subtle thought that is in error may yet give rise to fruitful inquiry that can establish truths of great value.
Isaac Asimov
Abortion and racism are both symptoms of a fundamental human error. The error is thinking that when someone stands in the way of our wants, we can justify getting that person out of our lives. Abortion and racism stem from the same poisonous root, selfishness.
Alveda King
Acting is like a high wire act. Your margin for error is very slim.
Christine Baranski
Action and reaction, ebb and flow, trial and error, change - this is the rhythm of living. Out of our over-confidence, fear; out of our fear, clearer vision, fresh hope. And out of hope, progress.
Bruce Barton
Admitting Error clears the Score, And proves you Wiser than before.
Arthur Guiterman
All men are liable to error; and most men are, in many points, by passion or interest, under temptation to it.
John Locke
An error does not become truth by reason of multiplied propagation, nor does truth become error because nobody sees it.
Mahatma Gandhi
An error doesn't become a mistake until you refuse to correct it.
Orlando A. Battista
An error is the more dangerous in proportion to the degree of truth which it contains.
Henri Frederic Amiel
Any man can make mistakes, but only an idiot persists in his error.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Any man is liable to err, only a fool persists in error.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Any man worth his salt will stick up for what he believes right, but it takes a slightly better man to acknowledge instantly and without reservation that he is in error.
Andrew Jackson
Anyone nit-picking enough to write a letter of correction to an editor doubtless deserves the error that provoked it.
Alvin Toffler
Art has a double face, of expression and illusion, just like science has a double face: the reality of error and the phantom of truth.
Publilius Syrus
At a time when we're having to take such difficult decisions about how to cut back without damaging the things that matter the most, we should strain every sinew to cut error, waste and fraud.
David Cameron
Be bold. If you're going to make an error, make a doozy, and don't be afraid to hit the ball.
Billie Jean King
