    Das Leben ist wie ein Abwasserkanal ... was man daraus macht, hängt davon ab, was man hineinsteckt.

    la vie est comme un égout ... ce que vous en retirez dépend de ce que vous y mettez.

    जीवन एक नाले की तरह है... इससे आपको क्या मिलता है यह इस बात पर निर्भर करता है कि आप इसमें क्या डालते हैं।

    az élet olyan, mint egy csatorna ... hogy mit hozol ki belőle, attól függ, hogy mit adsz bele.

    livet er som en kloakk... hva du får ut av det avhenger av hva du putter i det.

    زندگی گٹر کی طرح ہے ... جس چیز سے آپ نکلیں گے اس کا انحصار اس بات پر ہے کہ آپ نے اس میں کیا ڈال دیا ہے۔

    生活就像下水道...从中获得的收益取决于放入其中的东西。
