I love Klingon! They have no word for "apologize" or "peacekeeper",  and probably not "humility" or "bully" either.

How many more are missing?

Jimi Hendrix: When the power of love overcomes the love of power the world will know peace. 

Ghandi: Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.

The end result of life's daily pain and suffering, trials and failures, tears and laughter, readings and listenings is an accumulation of wisdom in its purest form.

I'd imagine the Swede's would have an easier time pronouncing it because it's more similar to their language.

I wouldn't want to give them an unfair advantage.  ;)
