    El fin de la sabiduría es soñar lo suficientemente alto como para perder el sueño al buscarlo.

    ज्ञान की समाप्ति स्वप्न को खोने के लिए पर्याप्त उच्च सपना देखना है।

    a bölcsesség vége az, hogy elég magasan álmodozzon, hogy elveszítse az álmot annak keresésében.

    slutten på visdom er å drømme høyt nok til å miste drømmen i søken etter den.

    智慧的结局是,梦想高到足以在寻求梦想时失去梦想。
