Non omnium, quae a majoribus nostris constituta sunt, ratio reddi potest; et ideo rationes eorum quae constituuntur inquiri non oportet; alioquin multa ex his quae certa sunt subvertuntur — It is impossible to give reasons for all of the laws instituted by our ancestors and so it is not needful to inquire into the reasons; otherwise many of those which are established would be overturned.
