To translate is to conquer. A nation can conquer another by translating its literature into its own language. Here is the lofty and noble way of conquest. The conquered people lose nothing, but the conqueror grows and rises.
"Hungarian
"Fordítani annyi, mint hódítani. Egy nép meghódíthatja a másikat, ha annak irodalmát átülteti a maga nyelvére. Íme, a hódítás fennkölt és nemes módja. A meghódított nép nem veszít semmit, a hódító azonban gyarapszik és emelkedik."
