(French, German)



French
La tolérance mutuelle est donc la règle d'or de notre conduite. Il va de soi en effet que nous ne serons jamais tous du même avis et que la Vérité nous apparaîtra de manière fragmentaire selon des points de vue différents.

German
Da wir niemals alle das Gleiche denken werden und alle die Wahrheit nur fragmentarisch und aus verschiedenen Blickwinkeln sehen, ist die goldene Verhaltensregel die gegenseitige Toleranz.
