Note how scrupulously the disciples refused to record those things that
might have given the impression of their fame. Note how they handed down in
writing numerous charges against themselves to unforgetting ages, and
accusations of sins, which no one in later years would ever have known about
unless hearing it from their voice. By thus honestly reporting their own
faults, it is reasonable to view them as relatively void of false speaking and
egoism. This habit gives plain and clear proof of their truth-loving
disposition.
Eusebius of Caesarea
