It is a sore point, because you do have advantages if you have access to more than one language. You also have problems, because on bad days you dont trust yourself, either in your first or your second language, and so you feel like a complete halfwit. – W. G. Sebald
Roman, remember that you shall rule the nations by your authority, for this is to be your skill, to make peace the custom, to spare the conquered, and to wage war until the haughty are brought low. – Virgil
