You go on these Internet blogs and people say the meanest things. I'm a normal person. Just because I'm in the spotlight doesn't mean I'm God's gift to the world. I'm learning and making mistakes just like every other 17-year-old girl out there.

I can look back at stuff I wrote in my early days and squirm at some of the mistakes I made. But we're all learning every day we never stop. I just hope people keep on liking what I do. That gives me such a kick.

It takes a long time to learn that a courtroom is the last place in the world for learning the truth.

Generally I like making my own mistakes and learning from them because that's what I think life is about.

I always say the minute I stop making mistakes is the minute I stop learning and I've definitely learned a lot.

You make mistakes but I don't have any regrets. I'm the kind of person who takes responsibility for it and deals with it. I learn from everything I do. I work very hard I have so many things going on in my life. Get to know me and see who I am.

There are no mistakes. The events we bring upon ourselves no matter how unpleasant are necessary in order to learn what we need to learn whatever steps we take they're necessary to reach the places we've chosen to go.

Learn to get in touch with the silence within yourself and know that everything in life has purpose. There are no mistakes no coincidences all events are blessings given to us to learn from.

Without pain there would be no suffering without suffering we would never learn from our mistakes. To make it right pain and suffering is the key to all windows without it there is no way of life.

I have spent a lifetime watching kids make mistakes because they were not trained or well led or properly motivated to do well. I never faulted the kids rather I saw opportunity to train to motivate to improve leadership - not to punish the individual.

It takes leadership to improve safety. And I started off the movement in my time but the person who has done more over the past 20 to 30 years and who has led it is Professor Sid Watkins.

The person who takes the oath of office in the next four months will shape not just the next four years but the next forty years of our nation. In these next four years we need proven leadership proven judgment and proven values. America needs four more years of President Barack Obama.

Obstacles are things a person sees when he takes his eyes off his goal.

People who don't take risks generally make about two big mistakes a year. People who do take risks generally make about two big mistakes a year.

I have witnessed how education opens doors and I know that when sound instruction takes place students experience the joys of new-found knowledge and the ability to excel.

The most important thing I learned as a foreign correspondent in about 80 countries is that it takes a very shallow knowledge of history to think that there are solutions to most problems.

The intellectual takes as a starting point his self and relates the world to his own sensibilities the scientist accepts an existing field of knowledge and seeks to map out the unexplored terrain.

I have learned throughout my life as a composer chiefly through my mistakes and pursuits of false assumptions not by my exposure to founts of wisdom and knowledge.

All human knowledge takes the form of interpretation.

It takes a couple of years just to get the background and knowledge that you need before you can go into detailed training for your mission.

The world of knowledge takes a crazy turn when teachers themselves are taught to learn.

That writer does the most who gives his reader the most knowledge and takes from him the least time.

Mistakes are after all the foundations of truth and if a man does not know what a thing is it is at least an increase in knowledge if he knows what it is not.

Love takes up where knowledge leaves off.
