Infallibility

Description

<bq author="Benjamin Franklin" href="http://www.yale.edu/lawweb/avalon/debates/917.htm" source="The Avalon Project at Yale Law School">I confess that there are several parts of this constitution<fn> which I do not at present approve, but I am not sure I shall never approve them: For having lived long, I have experienced many instances of being obliged by better information, or fuller consideration, to change opinions even on important subjects, which I once thought right, but found to be otherwise. It is therefore that the older I grow, the more apt I am to doubt my own judgment, and to pay more respect to the judgment of others. Most men indeed as well as most sects in Religion, think themselves in possession of all truth, and that wherever others differ from them it is so far error.</bq> <hr> <ft>Referring to the Consitution of the United States.</ft>
