He desires his transcript to be faithful to the meaning of the original, so far as he can reach that meaning, and also to do some justice to its literary qualities. But he is well aware that his aim often exceeds his grasp. Translation may be a fascinating task, yet no discipline is more humbling. You may be translating oracles, but soon you learn the risk and folly of posing as an oracle yourself. If your readers are dissatisfied at any point, they may be sure that the translator is still more dissatisfied, if not there, then elsewhere -- all the more so, because, in the nature of the case, he has always to appear dogmatic in print.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6344</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We weep when we are born, Not when we die! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58780]]></link><description><![CDATA[We weep when we are born, Not when we die!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58780</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To be honest, we've had no complaints from people with disabilities about being unable to vote with our current voting ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37256]]></link><description><![CDATA[To be honest, we've had no complaints from people with disabilities about being unable to vote with our current voting system.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37256</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ay, sir, and wherefore; for they say every why hath a wherefore. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51235]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ay, sir, and wherefore; for they say every why hath a wherefore.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51235</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Whoever serves his country well has no need of ancestors. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2508]]></link><description><![CDATA[Whoever serves his country well has no need of ancestors.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2508</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9763]]></link><description><![CDATA[Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9763</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Everything has been figured out, except how to live. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1291]]></link><description><![CDATA[Everything has been figured out, except how to live.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1291</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The back-doore robs the house. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49794]]></link><description><![CDATA[The back-doore robs the house.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49794</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Real firmness is good for anything; strut is good for nothing ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16036]]></link><description><![CDATA[Real firmness is good for anything; strut is good for nothing]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16036</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We recognize the problem in Rocky Mountain National Park. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41818]]></link><description><![CDATA[We recognize the problem in Rocky Mountain National Park.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41818</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[From the shore.. one looksupward to the sanddune grass.. 10,000green brushes attemptingwhere they laidto paint the blue skyjade. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3220]]></link><description><![CDATA[From the shore.. one looksupward to the sanddune grass.. 10,000green brushes attemptingwhere they laidto paint the blue skyjade.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3220</guid></item></channel></rss>
