    दूर और मुश्किल का लालच भ्रामक है। महान अवसर वह है जहां आप हैं।

    a távoli és a nehéz csaló megtévesztő. a nagyszerű lehetőség ott van, ahol vagy.

    먼 곳의 유혹과 어려운 곳은 기만적입니다. 좋은 기회는 당신이있는 곳입니다.

    lokking av det fjerne og det vanskelige er villedende. den store muligheten er der du er.

    遙遠而艱難的誘惑是騙人的。好的機會就是你在哪裡。
