We trained hard, but it seemed that every time we were beginning to form up into teams we would be reorganised.  I was to learn later in life that we tend to meet any new situation by reorganising: and a wonderful method it can be for creating the illusion of progress, while producing confusion, inefficiency and demoralisation.

    nous nous sommes entraînés dur, mais il semblait que chaque fois que nous commençons à nous former en équipes, nous serions réorganisés. J'apprendrai plus tard dans la vie que nous avons tendance à faire face à toute nouvelle situation en nous réorganisant: et une méthode merveilleuse cela peut être pour créer l'illusion du progrès, tout en produisant confusion, inefficacité et démoralisation.

    erudiebamus durissimum inciperent quoties visum acies volumus Partes subiciantur. postea eram in vita discere, quod novam aliquam tendunt ad occursum situ ab reorganising et admirabile per modum esse possit proficere creando illusio, dum producendo confusione, INUTILITAS, et ui perculsos sustinere.

    我們刻苦訓練,但似乎每當我們開始組建團隊時,我們都會進行重組。我要在生活的晚些時候了解到,我們傾向於通過重組來適應任何新情況:這是一種奇妙的方法,可以用來創造進步的幻想,同時產生混亂,低效和士氣低落。
