A beautiful sunset that was mistaken for a dawn.
Claude Debussy
A journalist is a person who has mistaken their calling.
Otto von Bismarck
And for anyone who ever thought that Ellen and I broke it off because of sexuality, you couldn't be more mistaken. And for anyone who thought my mother's prayers had anything to do with me marrying a man, forget it.
Anne Heche
Anyone who thinks my story is anywhere near over is sadly mistaken.
Donald Trump
Back of every mistaken venture and defeat is the laughter of wisdom, if you listen.
Carl Sandburg
Being here allows me to make the case that not all aging, narcissistic movie actors whose children could be mistaken for their grandchildren necessarily act with the same motivation.

Bela Kun
I also had this mistaken dream, fantasy really - perhaps because I'm good at languages - of being able in both Italy and France to become someone else through my fluency in the language.

Oliver Cromwell
I can think that you are mistaken, but I have to be ready to give my life to maintain your right to make mistakes. I have to, though, have the right to say that you're mistaken. This is the principal of the liberal society.
Rocco Buttiglione
I chose and my world was shaken. So what? The choice may have been mistaken; the choosing was not. You have to move on.

I do not pretend to know precisely what is on foot there; but I think it pretty evident that there is a very free communication between that country and this body, and unless I am greatly mistaken, I see the dwarfish medium by which that communication is kept up.
Benjamin F. Wade
I got briefly mistaken for someone who might be good in bed, which was very, very good.
Bill Nighy
I hope this view of the question may be a mistaken one, because it does not seem to me very unlikely that the suffrage will be granted to women.
John Bright
I love good and pleasure, I hate evil and pain, I want to be happy and I am not mistaken in believing, that people, angels and even demons have those same inclinations.
