Equivalent to 34 Latinism; even the best clerk cast a clean-slate " i.e., anyone, even being the best in their profession, can be wrong because errare humanum est, as Seneca said. The original phrase coined by Horacio in the Epistle to rammers, Roman family of the gens Calpurnia, characterized by his spirit Hellenistic epicurean, the original phrase, I say, was " quandoque bonus dormitat Homerus " once also the good Homer falls asleep. This Latinism remember that a former teacher of mine of latin used it when we noticed him that he was wrong on some issue.
