I don't think that a translation of the "quick fox" is the way to go on
this. Better to find/create an equivalent statement that is short, pithy,
coherent, and contains all the characters. It need not be profound (our
"fox" sentence reads more like the kindergarten "See Spot run" sentence),
but at least it makes sense.
