As a bit of a joke here at work we are designing a coat of arms and we want to have a Latin phrase thereon.
The phrase we were thinking of is “I would rather be called a liar, than be proved wrong” or perhaps “Better to be called a liar, than to be proved wrong”. (Whichever works better I guess.)
Does anybody know enough Latin to translate this for us?
If another variant works better after translation, that would be fine too.
“Deceptio Praecedo Confiteor Confessus”
–Deception Before Admission
Has a ring to it, I guess… 
In college, excelled in version, hated theme, reason being that with theme, you had to know grammar rules whereas with version, you could always guess the meaning of the Latin text:).
That, plus the fact that my Latin is about 40 years old, leads me to the conclusion that I can be of no assistance whatsoever to you.
Come up with a Latin motto next time around: I’ll see what I can do:D.
