Translation

Překlad

As a person with a sense of honor and magnanimity does not like to hear about his abominable actions, a person who is very famous and powerful does not like to hear himself praised.

Stejně jako osoba, která má smysl pro čest a šlechetnost, nerada slyší o svých ohavných činech, tak i velice slavný a mocný člověk nerad slyší svoji chválu.
