Noe så uklokt skal du aldri gjøre som å trette med en tosk... --- Something as unwise, never do that to contend with a fool ... --- Etwas so unklug, das nie tun mit einem Narren zu kämpfen ... ---Quelque chose comme des insensés, ne font jamais que de composer avec un fou ... --- Algo tan poco inteligente, no haga nunca que hacer frente a un tonto ...

There was a land, which I suppose,
Where everyone had a crooked nose;


And the crooked nose that everyone had
In no manner did make him sad.


But in that land a man was born
Whose nose more straight and clean was worn;


And the men of that land with a public hate
Killed the man whose nose was straight.
