    هناك نوعان من الناس في هذا العالم ، أولئك الذين يتوقون لفهمهم والذين يتوقون إلى فهمهم. إنها سخرية الحياة التي لا ترضى.

    Hay dos tipos de personas en este mundo, aquellos que anhelan ser entendidos y aquellos que anhelan ser incomprendidos. Es la ironía de la vida que ninguno de los dos está satisfecho.

    det er to slags mennesker i denne verden, de som lengter etter å bli forstått, og de som lengter etter å bli misforstått. det er livets ironi som ingen blir tilfredse med.
