Treat a man as he appears to be, and you make him worse. But treat a man as if he were what he potentially could be, and you make him what he should be.

    عامل الرجل كما يبدو ، وتجعله أسوأ. لكن عامل الرجل كما لو كان محتملًا ، وتجعله ما يجب أن يكون عليه.

    Behandle einen Mann so, wie er zu sein scheint, und du machst ihn noch schlimmer. Aber behandeln Sie einen Mann so, als wäre er das, was er möglicherweise sein könnte, und Sie machen ihn zu dem, was er sein sollte.

    Trata a un hombre como parece y lo empeorarás. pero trata a un hombre como si fuera lo que potencialmente podría ser y lo convertirás en lo que debería ser.
