lil' help on...a quote
 
Occassionally, I'll recall a part of (or the intent of) a great quote. Frequently google or some other engine will be of help. Sometimes they're not. So, my latest failed quest expresses the importance of accuracy when writing as opposed to liberties afforded to speech. IIRC, the quote expressed how eyes were sharp and ears less so. Any help? Thanks in advance and feel free to ask for help as well.

no idea, probably a lawyer

although, for some reason Mark Twain is coming to mind, Sam C. never practiced law

The eyes believe themselves; the ears believe other people.

Certainly in the correct spirit...maybe that's the one?
