Famous quotes containing the words interpretation of the, interpretation of and/or poem:

    It is clear that everybody interested in science must be interested in world 3 objects. A physical scientist, to start with, may be interested mainly in world 1 objects—say crystals and X-rays. But very soon he must realize how much depends on our interpretation of the facts, that is, on our theories, and so on world 3 objects. Similarly, a historian of science, or a philosopher interested in science must be largely a student of world 3 objects.
    Karl Popper (1902–1994)

    One poem proves another and the whole,
    For the clairvoyant men that need no proof:
    The lover, the believer and the poet.
    Their words are chosen out of their desire,
    The joy of language, when it is themselves.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
