Englisches Zitat von Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr. als Bild

A word is not a crystal, transparent and unchanged; it is the skin of a living thought and may vary greatly in color and content according to the circumstances and time in which it is used.

Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr.

Deutsche Übersetzung

Ein Wort ist kein Kristall, transparent und unverändert; Es ist die Haut eines lebenden Gedankens und kann je nach den Umständen und der Zeit, in der er verwendet wird, in Farbe und Inhalt stark variieren.
