Nature teaches more than she preaches. There are no sermons in stones. It is easier to get a spark out of a stone than a moral.

    تعلم الطبيعة أكثر مما تعظ. لا توجد عظات في الحجارة. من الأسهل إخراج شرارة من حجر أكثر من أخلاق.

    प्रकृति जितना सिखाती है, उससे कहीं अधिक उसे सिखाती है। पत्थरों में कोई उपदेश नहीं हैं। नैतिकता की तुलना में पत्थर से चिंगारी निकलना आसान है।

    բնությունը սովորեցնում է ավելին, քան նա քարոզում է: քարերի քարոզներ չկան: ավելի հեշտ է քարից դուրս գալ, քան բարոյականությունը:

    alam mengajar lebih dari yang dia khotbahkan. tidak ada khotbah di batu. lebih mudah mendapatkan percikan dari batu daripada moral.

    ప్రకృతి ఆమె బోధించే దానికంటే ఎక్కువ బోధిస్తుంది. రాళ్ళలో ఉపన్యాసాలు లేవు. నైతికత కంటే రాయి నుండి స్పార్క్ పొందడం సులభం.

    فطرت اس کی تبلیغ سے زیادہ تعلیم دیتا ہے. پتھروں میں کوئی واعظ نہیں ہے. اخلاقی کے مقابلے میں ایک پتھر سے باہر چمکنا آسان ہے.
