    Sprache ist die Mutter des Denkens, nicht ihre Magd.

    El lenguaje es la madre del pensamiento, no su doncella.

    le langage est la mère de la pensée, pas sa servante.

    is í an teanga máthair an smaoinimh, ní a banlámh.

    a nyelv a gondolat anyja, nem a szolgálója.

    il linguaggio è la madre del pensiero, non la sua ancella.

    taal is de moeder van het denken, niet haar dienares.

    a linguagem é a mãe do pensamento, não sua serva.

    limba este mama gândului, nu fecioara sa.
