"Ego autem difficillime bonus judex lego quod scripserim, sed aut timidior recto aut cupidior. Video etiam interdum vitia mea; sed hæc malo audire a melioribus, ne cum me recte fortasse reprehendero, rursus mihi blandiar, et meticulosam potius mihi videar in me, quam justam tulisse sententiam."-ST. AUGUSTINE.
