Reference for Pesachim 24:5
(אלא) אמר אביי עדות מסורה לזריזים חמץ לכל מסור
A man may err in an hour and a trifle, let us eat until the end of the fifth hour? - Said Abaye: Testimony is committed to careful men,<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' A man does not come to testify without being very careful on the question of time, as he knows that he will be cross-examined.');"><sup>5</sup></span> [whereas] leaven is committed to all.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Every man uses his own judgment, and therefore a far wider margin of error is possible.');"><sup>6</sup></span>
