“ Learn to distinguish the difference between errors of knowledge and breaches of morality. An error of knowledge is not a moral flaw, provided you are willing to correct it; only a mystic would judge human beings by the standard of an impossible, automatic omniscience.

Make every allowance for errors of knowledge; do not forgive or accept any break of morality. ” – Ayn Rand, Atlas Shrugged
