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.
