The Vincentian Canon

Vincent of Lérins, Commonitorium Against Heresies 1.2 (tr. C.A. Heurtley):
Moreover, in the Catholic Church itself, all possible care must be taken that we hold that faith which has been believed everywhere, always, by all.

In ipsa item Catholica Ecclesia magnopere curandum est ut id teneamus quod ubique, quod semper, quod ab omnibus creditum est.
Paul Valéry (1871-1945), Collected Works, Vol. 14: Analects, tr. Stuart Gilbert (Princeton: Princeton University Press, 1970), p. 86:
What has been believed by all, always and everywhere, has every likelihood of being untrue.
