I Made Mistakes Quotes

...They said I looked like a foreign devil; they said I spoke like a foreign devil. I made mistakes in manners, and I didn't know delicacies that had grown up since my father left. They wouldn't have me. You can believe it or not - I'm less foreign here than I was in China.
- John Steinbeck

I made mistakes in drama. I thought drama was when actors cried. But drama is when the audience cries.
- Frank Capra

Yes, I made mistakes by rebelling, by acting out in confused ways.

- Francois Hollande

In some ways, that's the story of my season - when I wasn't making big mistakes, I was winning races and being on the podium. And when I made mistakes I was still fourth or fifth, just off the podium.
- Bode Miller
