Môe by osobou stratenou vo svete, alebo môe by celý svet pre jednu osobu. Explanation: This idiomatic and proverbial expression is better to be translated not literally, but figuratively, in a more free, idiomatic manner (I have tried to express the sense of the original source text by translating it into idiomatic Slovak as "You can be a person lost in a world, or you can be the whole world for a single person".
