Samuel McChord Crothers on Perfection
Try as hard as we may for perfection, the net result of our labors is an amazing variety of imperfectness. We are surprised at our own versatility in being able to fail in so many different ways.
Saint Francis de Sales on Perfection
Have patience with all things, but chiefly have patience with yourself. Do not lose courage in considering you own imperfections but instantly set about remedying them - every day begin the task anew.
Michael J. Fox on Perfection
I am careful not to confuse excellence with perfection. Excellence, I can reach for; perfection is God's business.
Lois McMaster Bujold on Perfection
I don't confuse greatness with perfection. To be great anyhow is…the higher acheivement.
Eugene Delacroix on Perfection
Artists who seek perfection in everything are those who cannot attain it in anything.
Dr. David M. Burns on Perfection
Remember that fear always lurks behind perfectionism. Confronting your fears and allowing yourself the right to be human can, paradoxically, make you a far happier and more productive person.
Dr. David M. Burns on Perfection
Assert your right to make a few mistakes. If people can't accept your imperfections, that's their fault.
Dr. David M. Burns on Perfection
Aim for success, not perfection. Never give up your right to be wrong, because then you will lose the ability to learn new things and move forward with your life.
Antoine de Saint-Exupéry on Perfection
Perfection is achieved, not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away.
