Experto crede


Experto crede is a Latin motto which means "Believe one who has had experience in the matter". It is usually used by an author as an aside to the reader, and may be loosely translated as: "trust me", "trust the expert", "believe one who has tried it", or "have faith in experience".

In the form experto credite it is a quotation from the Aeneid by Virgil.
