Answer 6

The original quote in Spanish -by Calderón De La Barca- is this one:

* "Pues el delito mayor del hombre es haber nacido"

The most accepted translation of that famous quote is the following:

* "For man's greatest crime is to have been born."

This one is also valid:

* "Since man's greatest crime on earth is the fatal fact of birth."

Answer 7

"Man's greatest crime is to have been born"

This could mean mankind in general or men specifically (as opposed to women). It could also refer to a specific man -"The man's greatest crime was to have been born". The context would make it clear.

And yes, it is Spanish.
