"Toki Pona helps you to realize that thoughts are not made of words, like being a fish and discovering that the universe is not made of water" |
... a comment by "jan Telakoman", from the discussion thread "Benefits of Toki Pona" (April 2024) ... and as translated into Toki Pona by "Markster94":
jan la, sona li nimi ala.
kala la, ale li telo ala.
alternatively:
jan la, sona li nimi ala.
kala la, ale li telo ala.
or in English:
To a person, knowledge is not words.
To a fish, everything is not water.
