You've only got to grow old to be more lenient; I see no fault committed of which I too haven't been guilty. — Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

You've only got to grow old to be more lenient; I see no fault committed of which I too haven't been guilty.

Man darf nur alt werden, um milder zu sein; ich sehe keinen Fehler begehen, den ich nicht auch begangen hätte.
