“وأَنا المُسَافِرُ داخلي
وأَنا المُحَاصَرُ بالثنائياتِ ،
لكنَّ الحياة جديرَةٌ بغموضها
وبطائرِ الدوريِّ …
لم أُولَدْ لأَعرفَ أَنني سأموتُ ، بل لأُحبَّ محتوياتِ ظلِّ
اللهِ
يأخُذُني الجمالُ إلى الجميلِ
وأُحبُّ حُبَّك ، هكذا متحرراً من ذاتِهِ وصفاتِهِ”
― جدارية

“But what is the opposite of fidelity?' asked Professor Playfair. He was approaching the end of his dialitic; now he needed only to draw it to a close with a punch. 'Betrayal. Translation means doing violence upon the original, it means warping and distorting it for foreign, unintended eyes. So, where does that leave us? How can we conclude except by acknowledging that an act of translation is always an act of betrayal?”
