    لا يوجد إنسان أكثر تعاسة من الذي لا يواجه الشدائد. لأنه لا يجوز له إثبات نفسه.

    Κανένας άνθρωπος δεν είναι πιο δυστυχισμένος από αυτόν που δεν αντιμετωπίζει ποτέ αντιξοότητες. γιατί δεν επιτρέπεται να αποδείξει τον εαυτό του.

    Ningún hombre es más infeliz que el que nunca enfrenta la adversidad. porque no se le permite probarse a sí mismo.

    هیچ مردی ناراضی تر از کسی نیست که هرگز با سختی روبرو نشود. زیرا او مجاز به اثبات خود نیست.

    nul n'est plus malheureux que celui qui ne fait jamais face à l'adversité. car il n'est pas autorisé à faire ses preuves.

    कोई भी आदमी इससे ज्यादा दुखी नहीं है, जो कभी विपत्ति का सामना न करे। क्योंकि उसे खुद को साबित करने की अनुमति नहीं है।

    nincs boldogtalanabb ember, mint aki soha nem néz szembe a viszontagságokkal. mert nem szabad bizonyítania.

    nessun uomo è più infelice di chi non affronta mai le avversità. poiché non gli è permesso di provare se stesso.

    Here is the translation of the text into Latin: "Nemo est infelix magis quam is qui adversitatem numquam iniret. Non enim sibi probari licet."

    nenhum homem é mais infeliz do que aquele que nunca enfrenta adversidades. pois ele não tem permissão para provar a si mesmo.

    اس سے زیادہ ناخوش کوئی شخص نہیں جس کو کبھی تکلیف کا سامنا نہ کرنا پڑے۔ کیونکہ اسے خود کو ثابت کرنے کی اجازت نہیں ہے۔

    沒有人比從未面對逆境的人更不高興。因為他不被證明自己。
