Hello,Patze!To err is human,which means we make mistakes despite sincere efforts.we are not perfect which means we are not supposed to know everything.we do not know some thing of any thing.so we make mistake while doing some work and hence people say I am human and so I am not perfect.Perfect is only God and none else.thanx.

Well,it's a person's way of asking for understanding coz we do make mistakes. But if it's intentionally or repeatedly done, now that's a different story. He/She needs to check his/her behavior or he/she will end with a lot of conflicts from other people. Happy mylotting!

yes i agree to the fact that humans are not perfect in any way!! we tend
to do a lot of mistakes with and without our knowledge!!
it always happens that we think of one thing and do something else.. that s
human nature!! and we have gt live with it!!! and of course mistakes always teach
us a lesson that we have to remember life long!!! so that we don repeat it again!!

Hi patzel.. You can't take it as an excuse, because there is no one who is so ideal in the world.. to do any work to the core of perfection.
But the thing is that we must constantly try to improve our self in reaching the goal of perfectionism. Striving for it is the essential factor, and it the sign of progress in the mankind.Without this the man kind will turn to a stale state.
So when some one says, after doing all these efforts it can be taken as an alibi, and if not.. it is categorical way of seeking reasons for his failure.
Take care and have a good day .

In my opinion, they just want have a rest and a right excuse to forgive themselves.sometime things are too hard which was beyond the human ability that they just want a excuse to quit. but I don't think it is a good way to face the difficult.in fact ,if we try harder we can make it.don't you agree with me?

Well, it depends on the situation. If someone said this as they are on trial for a murder, we can't let this expression get them off. I think this expression was made for those little times in your life where something that could have been prevented happened. And in the end no one was seriously injured. I think it pertains to smaller mistakes.

Yes, it is true that nobody's perfect but most of us misinterpret it, Its not acceptable when you did mistakes you'll hind on that saying, it is only use when you're doing your best yet you're best wasn't good enough to perfect what you're doing.
