Famous quotes containing the words translation and/or confusion:

    “Any translation which intends to perform a transmitting function cannot transmit anything but information—hence, something inessential. This is the hallmark of bad translations.”
    —Walter Benjamin (1892–1940)

    “When heaven and earth were in confusion hurl’d
    For the debated empire of the world,
    Which awed with dreadful expectation lay,
    Soon to be slaves, uncertain who should sway:”
    —Lucretius (Titus Lucretius Carus)
