    spíše neúspěch se ctí, než uspět podvodem.

    scheitern lieber mit Ehre als durch Betrug erfolgreich zu sein.

    μάλλον αποτυγχάνετε με τιμή παρά επιτυχία με απάτη.

    prefiero fallar con honor que triunfar por fraude.

    plutôt échouer avec honneur que réussir par fraude.

    धोखाधड़ी से सफल होने के बजाय सम्मान से असफल होना।

    詐欺で成功するよりも、名誉をもって失敗する。

    mai degrabă eșuează cu onoare decât reușește prin fraudă.

    hellre misslyckas med ära än att lyckas genom bedrägeri.

    மோசடி மூலம் வெற்றிகொள்ளும் வகையில் கௌரவத்துடன் தோல்வியடையும்.

    మోసం ద్వారా విజయవంతం కాకుండా గౌరవంగా విఫలమవుతుంది.

    بلکہ دھوکہ دہی سے کامیاب ہونے کی بجائے عزت سے ناکام ہوجائیں۔

    寧可因榮譽而失敗,也不要因欺詐而成功。
