When the mind is in a state of uncertainty the smallest impulse directs it to either side.
Dum in dubio est animus, paulo momento huc illuc impellitur.

More quotes by Terence
There is nothing so easy but that it becomes difficult when you do it reluctantly.
It behooves a prudent person to make trial of everything before arms.
Do you fear to trust the word of a man, whose honesty you have seen in business?
