“A satisfactory translation is not always possible, but a good translator is never satisfied with it. It can usually be improved. (Newmark)”
― Peter Newmark, Manual de traducción (Linguistica / Linguistic)

“it is better to have red a great work of another culture in translation than never to have read it at all.”
― Henry Gratton Doyle
