If you realize you aren't so wise today as you thought you were yesterday, you're wiser today.

Olin Miller

I don’t bring yesterday’s poses to today’s practice. I know yesterday’s poses, but when I practice today I become a beginner. I don’t want yesterday’s experience. I want to see what new understanding may come in addition to what I felt up to now.

B.K.S. Iyengar

To live is to be someone else. Feeling is impossible if we feel today as we felt yesterday: to feel today the same thing we felt yesterday is not to feel at all--it's merely to remember today what we felt yesterday, since today we are the living cadaver of yesterday's lost life.

Fernando Pessoa

To realize that you were mistaken, is just the acknowledgement , that you are wiser today than you were yesterday.

Johann Kaspar Lavater

To acknowledge you were wrong yesterday is simply to let the world know that you are wiser today than you were then.

Jonathan Swift

No one should be ashamed to admit they are wrong, which is but saying, in other words, that they are wiser today than they were yesterday.

Alexander Pope

To acknowledge you were wrong yesterday is to acknowledge you are wiser today.

Charles Spurgeon

Today is the tomorrow you were optimistic about yesterday. What are you doing today to make tomorrow as rewarding as you had hoped today would be?

Zig Ziglar

I do not think much of a man who is not wiser today than he was yesterday.

Abraham Lincoln

To feel today what one felt yesterday isn't to feel - it's to remember today what was felt yesterday, to be today's living corpse of what yesterday was lived and lost.

Fernando Pessoa

Today is a new day. Even if you were wrong yesterday, you can get it right today.

Dwight Howard

By remaining exactly the same today as you were yesterday, you are guaranteeing that tomorrow will be no better than today.

Daniel Lapin

Yesterday's truth is today's bullshit. Even yesterday's liberating insight is today's jail of stale explanation.

Brad Blanton

We seem to be going through a period of nostalgia, and everyone seems to think yesterday was better than today. I don't think it was, and I would advise you not to wait ten years before admitting today was great. If you're hung up on nostalgia, pretend today is yesterday and just go out and have one hell of a time.
