| What is not learned in youth | UmsetingEnskt
Umsett av  aluji | Ynskt mál: Enskt
For what is not learned in youth is unknown in old age.
For nobody is known to be without faults; in great endeavors, it is also enough to have been willing. | Viðmerking um umsetingina | "noscitur", as it is an inchoative verb, more closely means "is getting to be known", which does not make sense in context. Perhaps there was a transcription error which produced "noscitur" from what I assume was the original word, "nascitur", which would change the translation to "For nobody is born without faults." There was also a strange rendition of "vitiis" to "vitis", so I think the text we have here is not entirely trustworthy. |

I've already changed "vitis" into "vitiis" (haven't noticed this before). Thank you. 
I share your opinion that probably the original word was "nascitur" in the second sentence, but as long as "noscitur" is also accceptable and possible within the context, I left the word as it was.

Could you please vote at this poll? I still haven't gotten any votes. CC: alexfatt | | |

It's pretty good translation. Anyway,
in magnis et voluisse sat est.
since it is a word "et" in the sentence, I would translate:
In great endeavours/things it is ALSO enough to have been willing. (or: that we have been willing)
