We learn something from everyone who passes through our lives.
Some lessons are painful, some are painless,
but all are priceless.

Chaque personne qui croise notre chemin
nous apprend quelque chose.
Parfois, ces leçons sont pénibles,
d'autres fois elles sont indolores,
mais elles sont toutes inestimables.
