If we use this light of our heart properly, it cannot deceive us; the purpose of this light which our creator gave us is to be saved by it, and not to be ruined by it. Everything that the light of our intelligence show us comes from the source of truth, but what men say comes from the source of lies and our intelligence teaches us that all that the creator established is right." -- Zera Yacob, The Treatise of Zera Yacob, p. 189
