Set me free, O God, from that multitude of speech which I suffer inwardly in my soul, wretched as it is in Thy sight, and flying for refuge to Thy mercy; for I am not silent in thoughts, even when silent in words...O Lord the one God, God the Trinity, whatever I have said in these books that is Thine, may those who are Thine acknowledge; if [I have said] anything of my own, may it be pardoned both by Thee and by those who are Thine.
Augustine, conclusion of On the Trinity
