perception is everything esse est percipi Explanation: This is by no means a literal translation of your phrase, but the famous quote by the philosopher George Berkeley, which means "to be is to be perceived". I thought I'd suggest this instead :-) |

perception is everything animi acies est omnia Explanation: This could be rendered several other ways, e.g., 'mentis acies est omnia', 'animi acumen est omnia', or, with less circumlocution, simply 'sagacitas est omnia' or 'iudicium est omnia'. |
