339. Unarten als gute Anzeichen. - Der überlegene Geist hat an den Tactlosigkeiten, Anmaassungen, ja Feindseligkeiten ehrgeiziger Jünglinge gegen ihn sein Vergnügen; es sind die Unarten feuriger Pferde, welche noch keinen Reiter getragen haben und doch in Kurzem so stolz sein werden, ihn zu tragen.

339. Bad manners as good signs. The superior mind takes pleasure in the tactlessness, presumptuousness, and even hostility directed at him by ambitious young men; these are the bad manners of fiery horses that have not yet carried a rider and yet will soon be so proud to carry him.

339. Les mauvaises manières comme bons signes. L’esprit supérieur prend plaisir aux manques de tact, aux présomptions, voire aux hostilités que lui témoignent de jeunes ambitieux ; ce sont les mauvaises manières de chevaux fougueux qui n’ont encore porté aucun cavalier et qui seront pourtant bientôt si fiers d’en porter un.
