It is merely human nature to make mistakes, and it is a better human nature to be able to know when we have done wrong, but we should always learn from our mistakes. And we all have a past, and of course, a present. The important thing is to be able to distinguish between them and not let your past ruin your present. These quotes about past mistakes will take you to a trip down memory lane, but more importantly, these will make you realize that the past is gone, and it should be kept away like a rose pressed between the pages of an old book.

1

What matters is what you are like now.

2

This is the best piece of advice you're getting in a long time.

3

Yeah, that's rather scary.

4

There is a difference between people putting you down to feel better, and people putting you down to make you a better person. 

5

Every mistake is a lesson.

6

Clearly stated as the truth is.

7

Moving forward is important, and that's possible only after letting go of what's holding you back.

8

That is a better way to tell you that you learn from your experience.

9

Maybe if I looked at history the same way when I was in school, I'd score better too...

10

There is a difference between what you physically are and what you are inside. Similarly, there's a difference between who you were and who you are.

11

Yes, we may have committed crimes, but if we left them in the past and learnt our lesson, we don't have to be locked up there anymore.

12

Life is what you do, then learn. Our mistakes teach us more than books ever could.

13

If we never fall, we'll never learn to take risks, and never learn to grow.

14

Your past determines your future by only testing your ability to stand back up.

15

When you admit a mistake, you free your soul of the guilt, and open your eyes to a better perspective.

16

The past is past for a reason, and you live in the present for a reason. That reason is future.

17

Those who have seen you do wrong, and helped you move on play a great role in making you who you are today. 

18

If you live, you will make mistakes, then why should you be embarrassed of your past mistakes?

19

Now this kind of attitude is what helps a person become strong and successful.

20

How about we all give a try at forgiving ourselves and starting over for a better tomorrow?

21

Each action you took in the past formed a stairway to your present. Each mistake you made along the way was only a higher step on that stairway.

22

This reminds me of Fight Club's dialogue, "You are not the contents of your wallet." 

23

You shouldn't carry the burden of past mistakes with you. Just extract their juice and toss them aside.

24

When all quotes about past mistakes tell you to put your past mistakes away for good, that doesn't mean you shouldn't be worried about repeating those mistakes.

25

Yeah, now that's the confidence to deal with those who look down at you.
