Scarcely any attempt is entirely
a failure; scarcely any theory, the
result of steady thought, al
together false, and no tempting
form of error is without some charm
of truth. Not only so, but every
failure is a step to success. Every
detection of what is false directs To
the truth. and every trial abates
some tempting form of errOr.-Mary
