Charles Caleb Colton Quote
As there are some faults that have been termed faults on the right side, so there are some errors that might be denominated errors on the safe side. Thus we seldom regret having been too mild, too cautious, or too humble; but we often repent having been too violent, too precipitate, or too proud.
Remarks on the Talents of Lord Byron and the Tendencies of Don Juan (ed. 1823)
