The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People - Stephen R. Covey

This quote was added by araullorraine
It is one thing to make a mistake, and quite another thing not to admit it. People will forgive mistakes, because mistakes are usually of the mind, mistakes of judgement. But people will not easily forgive the mistakes of the heart, the ill intention, the bad motives, the prideful justifying cover-up of the first mistake.

I wonder if Mr. Covey ever had to look a mother in the eye and told her he'd just run over her son by mistake.
