Mahatma Gandhi
It is not a mistake to commit a mistake, for no one commits a mistake knowing it to be one. But it is a mistake not to correct the mistake after knowing it to be one. If you are afraid of committing a mistake, you are afraid of doing anything at all. You will correct your mistakes whenever you find them.
Mahatma Gandhi
Intolerance betrays want of faith in one's cause.
Mahatma Gandhi
