Quotation, everyone makes mistakes and some people even admit it.?

Question

Who,s quotation was this?

Answer 1

A Maya Angelou quote was the closest I could find to the one you seek.

I don't know if I continue, even today, always liking myself. But what I learned to do many years ago was to forgive myself. It is very important for every human being to forgive herself or himself because if you live, you will make mistakes- it is inevitable. But once you do and you see the mistake, then you forgive yourself and say, 'well, if I'd known better I'd have done better,' that's all. So you say to people who you think you may have injured, 'I'm sorry,' and then you say to yourself, 'I'm sorry.' If we all hold on to the mistake, we can't see our own glory in the mirror because we have the mistake between our faces and the mirror; we can't see what we're capable of being. You can ask forgiveness of others, but in the end the real forgiveness is in one's own self. I think that young men and women are so caught by the way they see themselves. Now mind you. When a larger society sees them as unattractive, as threats, as too black or too white or too poor or too fat or too thin or too sexual or too asexual, that's rough. But you can overcome that. The real difficulty is to overcome how you think about yourself. If we don't have that we never grow, we never learn, and sure as hell we should never teach.
~~Maya Angelou, American Poet, b.1928


Here are a couple of additional quotes on the subject.

Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes. Art is knowing which ones to keep.
~~Scott Adams (1957 - ), 'The Dilbert Principle'

Freedom is not worth having if it does not include the freedom to make mistakes.
~~Mahatma Gandhi (1869 - 1948)

Mistakes, obviously, show us what needs improving. Without mistakes, how would we know what we had to work on?
~~Peter McWilliams, Life 101
