    Ein weiser Mann sieht so viel, wie er sollte, nicht so viel, wie er kann.

    un hombre sabio ve tanto como debe, no tanto como puede.

    un homme sage voit autant qu'il le devrait, pas autant qu'il le peut.

    एक बुद्धिमान व्यक्ति जितना देखता है, जितना चाहिए उतना नहीं।

    賢い人は、できる限りではなく、彼が見るべきだと思っています。

    聪明人会尽其所能,而不是应有尽有。
