“ Honoramus eos charitate, non servitute : nec cis templa construimus. Nolunt enim se sic à nobis honorari: quia nosipsos cùm boni sumus, templa summi Dei esse noverunt."

Πῶς γὰρ οὐκ ἄτοπον, ὑπὲρ μὲν χρημάτων μὴ ἑτέροις πιστεύειν, ἀλλ' ἀριθμῳ καὶ ψήφῳ τοῦτο ἐπιτρέπειν· ὑπὲρ δὲ πραγμάτων ψηφιζομένους ἁπλῶς ταις ἑτέρων παρασύρεσθαι δόξαις· καὶ ταυτα, ἀκριβῆ ζυγὸν ἁπάντων ἔχοντας καὶ γνώμονα καὶ κανόνα, των Θείων νόμων τὴν ἀπόφασιν;
