Famous quotes containing the words selected, poems and/or translation:

    “The best history is but like the art of Rembrandt; it casts a vivid light on certain selected causes, on those which were best and greatest; it leaves all the rest in shadow and unseen.”
    —Walter Bagehot (1826–1877)

    “Our poems will have failed if our readers are not brought by them beyond the poems.”
    —Muriel Rukeyser (1913–1980)

    “Whilst Marx turned the Hegelian dialectic outwards, making it an instrument with which he could interpret the facts of history and so arrive at an objective science which insists on the translation of theory into action, Kierkegaard, on the other hand, turned the same instruments inwards, for the examination of his own soul or psychology, arriving at a subjective philosophy which involved him in the deepest pessimism and despair of action.”
    —Sir Herbert Read (1893–1968)
