It is dangerous to be right in matters on which the established authorities are wrong.

Voltaire

If someone said three years from now
You`d be long gone
I`d stand up and punch them out
`Cause they`re all wrong
I know better
`Cause you said forever
And ever
Who knew.

Pink

The way you solve things is by making it politically profitable for the wrong people to do the right thing.

Milton Friedman

Even a correct decision is wrong when it was taken too late.

Lee Iacocca

The older golfer can hit the ball as far as the young one. He chips and putts equally well. And will probably have a better knowledge of the course. So why does he take the extra stroke that denies him victory? Experience. He knows the downside, what happens if it goes wrong, which makes him more cautious. The young player is either ignorant or reckless to caution. That is his edge. It is the same with all of us. Knowledge makes us play safe. The secret is to stay childish.

Paul Arden

If you show somebody a piece of your work and you ask them ‘What do you think? ’, they will probably say it’s okay because they don’t want to offend you. Next time, instead of asking if it’s right, ask them what’s wrong. They may not say what you want to hear, but the chances are they will give you a truthful criticism. Truth hurts, but in the long run it’s better than a pat on the back.

Paul Arden

Be your own worst critic. When things go wrong it’s tempting to shift the blame. Don’t. Accept responsibility. People will appreciate it, and you will find out what you’re capable of.

Paul Arden

There is a conventional or popular point of view. There is a personal point of view. There is a large point of view which the majority share. There is a small point of view which just a few share. But there is no right point of view. You are always right. You are always wrong. It just depends from which pole you are looked at. Advances in any field are built upon people with the small or personal point of view.

Paul Arden

No amount of experimentation can ever prove me right; a single experiment can prove me wrong.

Albert Einstein

When the shit is about to hit the fan, do somethin' - even if it is wrong.

Winston Groom

People usually think that technology and the human touch are incompatible. My mission is to prove them wrong.

Bertalan Mesko

Can you train yourself to love the right man? Of course you can. The problem is forgetting about the wrong man, the one passing by who came in a door that was left open without asking permission.

Paulo Coelho

When one is amazed and heartsick, it’s usually best to say nothing, for in that state, any word will be the wrong word.

Stephen King

We philosophers are mistake specialists. (I know, it sounds like a bad joke, but hear me out.) While other disciplines specialize in getting the right answers to their defining questions, we philosophers specialize in all the ways there are of getting things so mixed up, so deeply wrong, that nobody is even sure what the right questions are, let alone the answers. Asking the wrongs questions risks setting any inquiry off on the wrong foot. Whenever that happens, this is a job for philosophers! Philosophy - in every field of inquiry - is what you have to do until you figure out what questions you should have been asking in the first place.

Daniel Dennett
