Sahil Lavingia quotes on being correct

I'd rather be an optimist and wrong than a pessimist and right.

I used to think I was on the right side of an argument close to 100% of the time. Then, around 50% of the time. Now, I think it's close to 0%. Why? Because it's much more likely both sides are somewhat wrong than one being completely right.

My goal isn’t to be right, just more right than I was yesterday.

It's so difficult to admit to being wrong in public.
