    kiu volus vivi en paco kaj trankvilo, ne devas paroli ĉion, kion li scias, nek juĝi ĉion, kion li vidas.

    کسی که در صلح و آرامش زندگی می کند ، نباید همه آنچه را می داند صحبت کند و نه آنچه را که می بیند قضاوت کند.

    جو امن اور سکون سے زندگی گزارے گا ، اسے اپنی تمام باتیں نہ جاننا چاہ nor اور نہ ہی جو کچھ وہ دیکھتا ہے اس کا انصاف کرے۔
