+You, the Poles, have a funny nature. When the people going along the

+immediately feel like jumping off the vehicle, standing on all fours
+and starting to bark back at it. We, in the Vilnius region, let the
+dog bark because that is what its canine nature is like but we do not
+stop out journey because of its canine barking and without any war
+against dogs we calmly continue our journey until we reach our
+destination. It seems that you care more about barking more than the
+dog does and about winning the war with any lousy puppy than about
+reaching the destination quickly.

I guess this was lifted from wikiquote.org, since it has the same typos?

"stop out journey" should be "stop our journey", and the last sentence
should probably be "It seems that you care more about barking than the
dog does, and more about winning the war with a lousy puppy than about
reaching the destination quickly."
