  English (quote from Paul Graham):

  Back when I was writing books about Lisp, I used to wish everyone understood it. But when we started Viaweb I found that changed: I wanted everyone to understand Lisp except our competitors.

  To German:

  Ziehen Sie wenn ich war Schreiben Bücher über LISP zurück, ich pflegte, jeder zu wünschen verstand es. Aber, als wir Viaweb begannen, fand ich, daß geändert: Ich wünschte jeder LISP ausgenommen unsere Konkurrenten verstehen.

  And back to English:

  Pull if I were letter books concerning LISP back, I tended, everyone to wish understood it. But, when we began Viaweb, I found that changed: I wished excluded our competitors to each LISP understand.
