Title	But the other people don't know...
Translation Engels Translated by Urunghai	Target language: Engels But the other people don't know what they do when they wake up, just as they forget what they do when they're asleep. Eyes and ears are bad witnesses to people with undeveloped souls.
Remarks about the translation	I think those are quotes from Heraclitus

But (Î´á½²) other (á¼„Î»Î»Î¿Ï…Ï‚) men (á¼€Î½Î¸Ïá½½Ï€Î¿Ï…Ï‚) know not (Î»Î±Î½Î¸á½±Î½ÎµÎ¹) what they are doing (Ï€Î¿Î¹Î¿á¿¦ÏƒÎ¹Î½) when you wake (á¼Î³ÎµÏÎ¸á½³Î½Ï„ÎµÏ‚) them up, just as (á½…ÎºÏ‰ÏƒÏ€ÎµÏ) they forget (á¼Ï€Î¹Î»Î±Î½Î¸á½±Î½Î¿Î½Ï„Î±Î¹), what they do when asleep (Îµá½•Î´Î¿Î½Ï„ÎµÏ‚). Hope it helps!
