Chuck,

As you have already probably figured out, it's difficult to translate English, literally, into Latin. Here are a few phrases in the general area you're looking for, I think.

Leve fit, quod bene fertur, onus

A burden which is done well becomes light

Materiam superabat opus

The workmanship surpassed the subject matter


Omnia iam fient fieri quae posse negabam

Everything which I said could not happen will happen now


Fallaces sunt rerum species

The appearances of things are deceptive


Non est ad astra mollis e terris via

There is no easy way from the earth to the stars


Ab uno disce omnes

Learn all from one thing


All this, and more (including my signature), I learned here.

Alas, finally a a Renaissance computer man.

Thank you, JohnPaul!

Bravo, JohnPaul.

I certainly found the Latin phrases difficult to translate properly and was still searching for something comparable and valid to add.

Looks JohnPaul nailed it!

We would like to adopt the motto "How hard can it be?" for our lab at work.

Does anyone know how to say that in Latin?
