    George Washington, David Maydole Matteson (1781). “The Writings of George Washington from the Original Manuscript Sources, 1745-1799”, p.378
  • To rectify past blunders is impossible, but we might profit by the experience of them.

    George Washington, Stephen Lucas (1999). “The Quotable George Washington: The Wisdom of an American Patriot”, p.32, Rowman & Littlefield
