Oi Goncinho

Could this be put "Through knowledge..." rather than "With"?

And could "seek" be replaced by "attain"? (I'm not sure of the Latin, so this is just a suggestion).

I've set a poll.

Goncin,

Não seria melhor colocar "work" em vez de "labour"?

Ruth,

It seems to me that "attain" is too "finalistic", because the Latin verb has a "try to" acception (we'll try to, but it isn't sure we'll achieve it). Any other suggestion?

----------------

Diego,

"Labour" supposes some physical effort ('hard work'), for which I think it translates better the Latin term.

Hi Goncin,

What about "pursue"?

Hi All

Taino - I don't think the latin says as much as that does it?

Tittyy - If you don't motivate your disagreement with goncin's translation I can't take you opinion into consideration.

Pursue is fine with me
