Peter Newmark quotes

A satisfactory translation is not always possible, but a good translator is never satisfied with it. It can usually be improved. (Newmark) (Peter Newmark)

There is no such thing as a perfect, ideal, or 'correct' translation. A translator is always trying to extend his knowledge and improve his means of expression; he is always pursuing facts and words.
