Citação 5: Lutero


The mind is unable to judge the truth as such, although it is compelled to say, when entirely confident, "This is true." For example, the mind declares with infallible assurance that three and seven make ten, and yet it cannot adduce any reason why that is true, although it cannot deny its truth.

Martin Luther, The Babylonian Captivity of the Church, 1520
