The following are some great mistake quotes. We all make mistakes from time to time. It’s called being human. In fact, the more mistakes you make, the more you will learn through experience. Mistakes aren’t something to be fear but to embrace because every failure to do something makes you wiser and more capable of obtaining the original goal. Some of the most successful people in history are those who have made tons of mistakes. The only way to never make a mistake is to never try to make something of yourself. Now why would anyone want to NOT make mistakes?
