Famous quotes containing the words biological and/or copying:

    No poetic phantasy
    but a biological reality,
    a fact: I am an entity

    or sea-plant cell;
    I live; I am alive.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    As far as modern writing is concerned, it is rarely rewarding to translate it, although it might be easy.... Translation is very much like copying paintings.
