English (Source)

The world has come to a point where wisdom and decency are opposed to each other, and whoever chooses one must renounce the other. It doesn't lead to anything good if someone worries so much. Because it is written that "But let your speech be, thus, thus; no, no; above this something falls, it is from the evil one." (...) That's how it is; one is either smart or honest; the two don't go together.

Hungarian

Oda jutott a vilĂĄg, hogy szemben ĂĄll egymĂĄssal okossĂĄg Ă©s tisztessĂ©g, Ă©s aki az egyiket vĂĄlasztja, annak le kell mondania a mĂĄsikrĂłl. Nem vezet az semmi jĂłra, ha valaki olyan nagyon sokat töri a fejĂ©t. Mert meg vagyon Ă­rva, hogy "Hanem a ti beszĂ©detek lĂ©gyen, Ășgy, Ășgy; nem, nem; ennek felette valami esik, az a gonosztĂłl vagyon." (...) Így van ez; vagy okos az ember, vagy tisztessĂ©ges; a kettƑ egyĂŒtt nem megy.
