Austin Clarke Zitate

Yeats regarded his work as the close of an epoch, and the least of his later lyrics brings the sense of a great occasion. English critics have tried to claim him for their tradition, but, heard closely, his later music has that tremulous lyrical undertone which can be found in the Anglo-Irish eloquence of the eighteenth century.

Deutsche Übersetzung

Yeats betrachtete seine Arbeit als das Ende einer Epoche, und der geringste seiner späteren Texte vermittelt den Eindruck einer großen Gelegenheit. Englische Kritiker haben versucht, ihn für ihre Tradition zu beanspruchen, aber seine spätere Musik hat, genau zu hören, jenen zittrigen lyrischen Unterton, der in der anglo-irischen Beredsamkeit des 18. Jahrhunderts zu finden ist.

Of course, Einstein was a very great scientist indeed, and I have enormous respect for him, and great admiration for the discoveries he made. But he was very committed to a view of the objectivity of the physical world.

I am often on guard over the Russians. In the darkness one sees their forms move like stick storks, like great birds. They come close up to the wire fence and lean their faces against it. Their fingers hook round the mesh.
