What are some quotes on letting people make their own mistakes? - HatersMakeMeFamous - 11-10-2012 12:27 AM
My best friend is going to have sex with his girlfriend tomorrow, and I know it's a mistake, so I want a quote to put as my Facebook status.
Thanks, xx

"Once smitten, twice shy".
Meaning: Once you make a mistake and are beaten, you will be more careful the next time.

Here's a few great ones!
-- Never mistake activity for achievement.
John Wooden
-- I'd rather have a lot of talent and a little experience than a lot of experience and a little talent.
John Wooden
-- It is much easier to suppress a first desire than to satisfy those that follow.
Benjamin Franklin
-- By three methods we may learn wisdom: First, by reflection, which is noblest; Second, by imitation, which is easiest; and third by experience, which is the bitterest.

The easiest way to learn without hurting yourself is to learn from others' mistakes. That way the learning is yours while someone else suffers.
