Errors

Famous quotes containing the word errors:

    A happy people I call them still, whose peace and genuine morals have not been contaminated with European vices; and whose errors are only the errors of ignorance, and not the rooted depravity of a pretended civilization, and a spurious and mock Christianity.
    —J.G. (John Gabriel)

    Repent, repent, and from old errors turn!’
    Who listened to his voice, obeyed his cry?
    Only the echoes, which he made relent,
    Rung from their marble caves ‘Repent! Repent!’
    William Drummond, of Hawthornden (1585–1649)

    Generally speaking, the errors in religion are dangerous; those in philosophy only ridiculous.
    David Hume (1711–1776)
