Error is to the mind what poison is to the body. — Error

"There is no error so monstrous that it fails to find defenders among the ablest men."

"Es irrt der Mensch so lang er strebt."

"Ignorance is a blank sheet, on which we may write; but error is a scribbled one, from which we must first erase. Ignorance is content to stand still with her back to the truth, but error is more presumptuous, and proceeds in the same direction."

"Radical errors in the first concoction of the mind are not to be cured by the excellence of functions and remedies subsequent."

"Sometimes we may learn more from a mans errors than from his virtues."

"Have too rashly charged the troops of error and remain as trophies unto the enemies of truth."
