“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.

—Paul Goodman (1911–1972)

—Lydia Hoyt Farmer (1842–1903)
“The award of a pure gold medal for poetry would flatter the recipient unduly: no poem ever attains such carat purity.”
