    Wenn Menschen nicht gut schreiben können, können sie nicht gut denken, und wenn sie nicht gut denken können, werden andere ihr Denken für sie tun.

    Si las personas no pueden escribir bien, no pueden pensar bien, y si no pueden pensar bien, otros pensarán por ellos.

    si les gens ne savent pas bien écrire, ils ne peuvent pas bien penser, et s’ils ne peuvent pas bien penser, les autres penseront pour eux.

    se le persone non sanno scrivere bene, non possono pensare bene e se non riescono a pensare bene, gli altri faranno il loro pensiero per loro.

    사람들이 글을 잘 쓸 수 없다면, 잘 생각할 수없고, 잘 생각할 수 없다면, 다른 사람들이 자신을 위해 생각할 것입니다.

    если люди не умеют хорошо писать, они не могут хорошо мыслить, а если они не умеют хорошо думать, другие будут думать за них.

    om människor inte kan skriva bra, kan de inte tänka bra, och om de inte kan tänka bra, kommer andra att tänka för dem.

    如果人们不能写得好,他们就不能好好思考,如果他们想不好,别人就会为他们思考。
