"Pakadali pano, ndikuphunzira. Kulipira misonkho kumapeto kwa chaka ndi kovuta makamaka osati kwa oyamba kumene komanso kwa iwo omwe akhala akugwira ntchito kwa zaka zingapo. Malamulo amasintha chaka chilichonse, kotero aliyense amavutika.

Ndinamvanso kuti 'chilankhulo cha chikondi cha amayi' chili ngati chotonthoza chomwe chimapulumutsa anthu ndikuwapatsa mphamvu.
