Sweet are the uses of adversity, which, like a toad, though ugly and venomous, wears yet a precious jewel in its head.

William Shakespeare

1564-1616 was an English poet, playwright and actor, widely regarded as the greatest writer in the English language and the world's greatest dramatist. He is often called England's national poet and the "Bard of Avon". His extant works, including collaborations, consist of approximately 37 plays, 154 sonnets, two long narrative poems, and a few other verses, some of uncertain authorship. His plays have been translated into every major living language and are performed more often than those of any other playwright.

    süß sind die Verwendungen von Widrigkeiten, die wie eine Kröte, obwohl hässlich und giftig, dennoch ein kostbares Juwel im Kopf tragen.

    doux sont les usages de l'adversité, qui, comme un crapaud, bien que laid et venimeux, porte pourtant un joyau précieux dans sa tête.

    मिठाई प्रतिकूलता के उपयोग हैं, जो एक टॉड की तरह, हालांकि बदसूरत और विषैले होते हैं, अपने सिर में अभी तक एक कीमती गहना पहनते हैं।

    édesek a viszontagságok használata, amelyek, mint a varangy, bár csúnya és mérgező, mégis értékes ékszert hord a fejében.

    ヒキガエルのように、醜くて毒があるけれども、その逆境の使い方が甘いのは、まだ貴重な宝石です。

    doces são os usos da adversidade, que, como um sapo, embora feio e venenoso, ainda é uma jóia preciosa em sua cabeça.

    сладка польза невзгод, которые, подобно жабе, хотя и уродливой и ядовитой, все же носят драгоценный камень в своей голове.

    میٹھی مشکلات کے استعمال ہیں ، جو ایک میںڑک کی طرح ، اگرچہ بدصورت اور زہر آلود ہیں ، اس کے سر میں ابھی تک ایک قیمتی زیور پہنتے ہیں۔
