26 januari 2009 08:11 | | | Hi Goncin,
does this mean:
"two weights and two ways of measuring"
and
"there are as many opinions as there are heads (to have them)"
i.e.
"everyone has their own way of thinking (about some question)"
?

Yes, that is one possible interpretation. For the second sentence, it is also possible "for each person, a different penalty".  | | |
27 januari 2009 04:19 | | | Is that the same for the Latin text, too? | | |
27 januari 2009 10:41 | | | Yes, same meaning, but less words (as typical of Latin).  |
