From C.S Lewis' The Magician's Nephew:

Oh, Adams sons, how cleverly you defend yourself against all that might do you good.
~ Aslan

Length of days with an evil heart is only length of misery. All get what they want, they do not always like it.
~ Aslan

Creatures, I give you yourselves," said the strong, happy voice of Aslan. "I give you forever this land of Narnian.... I give you the stars and I give you myself. ...

No fair. Collarchat doesn't come equipped with that kinda translator . . . . . .

Are we talking the Boorman flick? That was very cool in a schlockey 80's kinda way . . . .

Nope. But google is turning up this as a translation:

Serpent's breath, charm of death and life, thy omen of making.

That's kinda charming . .... .

I saw Saul Williams touring his poet self, close to a decade ago, & he said this (& it really stuck in me noggin):

It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."
"Citizenship in a Republic,"
Speech at the Sorbonne, Paris, April 23, 1910

Awwww   don't be so petulant my dear Demon  LOL. Yes that's basically what it translates to...since it's referred to as the Charm of Making.

When you're fast asleep
In dreams you lose your heartaches
Whatever you wish for, you keep
Have faith in your dreams and someday
Your rainbow will come smiling thru
No matter how your heart is grieving
If you keep on believing
the dream that you wish will come true
