Famous quotes containing the words translated, poems and/or english:

    A written word is the choicest of relics. It is something at once more intimate with us and more universal than any other work of art. It is the work of art nearest to life itself. It may be translated into every language, and not only be read but actually breathed from all human lips;Mnot be represented on canvas or in marble only, but be carved out of the breath of life itself. The symbol of an ancient man’s thought becomes a modern man’s speech.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    This is what poems are:
    with mercy
    for the greedy,
    they are the tongue’s wrangle,
    the world’s pottage, the rat’s star.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    The English winter—ending in July,
    To recommence in August.
    George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
