Nunc cognosco ex parte.

For the scholar to admit to knowing only in part betrays neither false humility nor a poor academic record. Indeed, such an admission shows a realistic approach to learning, a mature understanding that no one can know everything, that even after graduation on the most advanced levels there will always remain much to acquire.


- His Excellency Georges P. Vanier, Opening Ceremonies, Trent University, 17 October 1964
