The truest characters of ignorance Are vanity, pride, and arrogance; As blind men use to bear their noses higher Than those that have their eyes and sight entire.

    a tudatlanság legigazibb szereplői a hiúság, a büszkeség és az arrogancia; ahogy a vakok magasabbra szokták hordani az orrukat, mint azok, akiknek teljes a szemük és a látásuk.

    جہالت کے اصل کردار باطل، غرور اور تکبر ہیں۔ جیسا کہ نابینا آدمی اپنی ناک کو ان لوگوں سے اونچا رکھتے ہیں جن کی آنکھیں اور بینائی پوری ہوتی ہے۔
