We have a hope of succeeding if we learn from our past mistakes and pull together to make the hard choices.

If we have a chance of succeeding and bringing stability and democracy to Iraq, it will mean learning from our mistakes, not denying them and not ignoring them.

We agreed not to talk about the past and acknowledged that mistakes were made. Everyone makes mistakes but they shouldn't be repeated.

We can't repeat the fiscal mistakes of the past.

I firmly believe that you live and learn, and if you don't learn from past mistakes, then you need to be drug out and shot.

During the past two seasons, we've learned from our mistakes. We're working to pay our past debts and to pay off the construction debt. We're determined that we're going to cure this thing and go on with the summer season that we've been planning.
