Whence then do my errors originate? Surely, just from this: my will extends more widely than my understanding, and yet I do not restrain it within the same bounds, but apply it to what I do not understand. Since it is here indifferent, it easily turns aside from truth and goodness; and so I fall into both error and sin.
