    Der Mensch hat das Netz des Lebens nicht gewebt, er ist nur ein Strang darin. Was immer er mit dem Web macht, tut er sich selbst an.

    el hombre no tejió la red de la vida, él es simplemente un hilo en ella. lo que hace a la web, se lo hace a sí mismo.

    मनुष्य ने जीवन का जाल नहीं बुना है, वह केवल एक कतरा है। जो कुछ भी वह वेब पर करता है, वह खुद से करता है।

    人は命の網を編んだのではなく、その中のほんの一束にすぎません。彼がウェブに対して行うことは何でも、彼は自分自身に対して行います。

    mennesket ikke vevde livets nett, han er bare en streng i det. hva han gjør mot nettet, gjør han mot seg selv.
