Erroneous Quotations
A hallucination is a fact, not an error; what is erroneous is a judgment based upon it.
Bertrand Russell
The common idea that success spoils people by making them vain, egotistic and self-complacent is erroneous; on the contrary it makes them, for the most part, humble, tolerant and kind.
W. Somerset Maugham
Men have an extraordinarily erroneous opinion of their position in nature; and the error is ineradicable.
W. Somerset Maugham
A man's conscience and his judgment is the same thing; and as the judgment, so also the conscience, may be erroneous.
Thomas Hobbes
The most erroneous stories are those we think we know best - and therefore never scrutinize or question.
Stephen Jay Gould
The world has become so complex that the idea of a power in which everything comes together and can be controlled in a centralized way is now erroneous.
Ulrich Beck
But your questions, which are unanswerable without exception, all spring from the same erroneous thinking.
Herman Hesse
No consensus of men can make an error erroneous. We can only find or commit an error, not create it. When we commit an error, we say what was an error already.
Josiah Royce
There's been a number of erroneous biographies, articles and so on written about Billy and we both thought it would be a good idea to produce a true one.
Pamela Stephenson
Believing that the power to destroy belongs to the Creator alone I affirm... that any theory which, when carried out, demands the annihilation of force, is necessarily erroneous.
James Prescott Joule
