Frauen sind wie Teebeutel. Du weißt nie, wie stark sie sind bis du sie in heißes Wasser geworfen hast.

“Women are like teabags. We don't know our true strength until we are in hot water!”

Wow, Matt, you picked up a lot more than I had thought you did. Yeah: it says, "Women are like teabags. You never know how strong they are until you throw them into hot water."

Well, you can give me credit for being smart. But not for knowing mych German. I couldn't wait for a translation, so I used the google translator.
