    Das ultimative Maß eines Menschen ist nicht, wo er in Momenten des Trostes steht, sondern wo er in Zeiten der Herausforderung und Kontroverse steht.

    la medida última de un hombre no es dónde se encuentra en momentos de comodidad, sino dónde se encuentra en momentos de desafío y controversia.

    la mesure ultime d'un homme n'est pas où il se trouve dans les moments de confort, mais où il se tient dans les moments de défi et de controverse.

    एक आदमी का अंतिम उपाय वह नहीं है जहां वह आराम के क्षणों में खड़ा है, लेकिन जहां वह चुनौती और विवाद के समय खड़ा है।

    ಮನುಷ್ಯನ ಅಂತಿಮ ಅಳತೆಯೆಂದರೆ ಅವನು ಆರಾಮ ಕ್ಷಣಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ಎಲ್ಲಿ ನಿಲ್ಲುತ್ತಾನೆ ಎಂಬುದು ಅಲ್ಲ, ಆದರೆ ಸವಾಲು ಮತ್ತು ವಿವಾದದ ಸಮಯದಲ್ಲಿ ಅವನು ಎಲ್ಲಿ ನಿಲ್ಲುತ್ತಾನೆ.

    a medida final de um homem não é onde ele se encontra em momentos de conforto, mas onde ele se encontra em momentos de desafio e controvérsia.

    конечной мерой человека является не то, где он стоит в моменты утешения, а то, где он стоит во времена испытаний и споров.

    一个人的最终衡量标准不是他在舒适的时刻站立的地方,而是他在挑战和争议的时候站立的地方。
