Edwin Lefevre Quotes

Making mistakes and learning from them is crucial to winning.

Perhaps the most important thing I could say is to never be thrown by failure and mistakes.

But if I make one mistake and learn from it, hey, to me in the game of life it's just as important to know what doesn't work as what does. So I think mistakes are a good thing.
