Goodman Brown

Famous quotes containing the words goodman and/or brown:

    “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)

    “they are brown and soft,
    And liable to melt as snow.”
    —Hart Crane (1899–1932)
