Famous quotes containing the words fighting and/or style:
“Soldier or sailor, the fighting man is but a fiend; and the staff and body-guard of the Devil musters many a baton.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
“To translate, one must have a style of his own, for otherwise the translation will have no rhythm or nuance, which come from the process of artistically thinking through and molding the sentences; they cannot be reconstituted by piecemeal imitation. The problem of translation is to retreat to a simpler tenor of one’s own style and creatively adjust this to one’s author.”
—Paul Goodman (1911–1972)
