To have the translator be a figure in the book's presentation seems like a big thing, especially for a book that's really popular.
Ann Goldstein
Image
As the writer, you can choose the word that seems best in terms of meaning, nuance, sound, etc. As the translator you are unlikely to find a word in your language that exactly matches, so that you are always making a decision about which meaning or nuance to choose, or emphasize, over the others.

All nature seems at work.
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
Image
This planet seems to be in such sorry shape. And I can't ever think about the rest of the universe without coming back home and thinking what the implications for life here would be if we were to really have some definitive proof of extraterrestrial life.
Ann Druyan
Image
Liberals are hopping mad because Rush Limbaugh referred to phony soldiers as phony soldiers. They claim he was accusing all Democrats in the military of being phony. True, all Democrats in the military are not phony soldiers, but all phony soldiers seem to be Democrats.
Ann Coulter
Image
London is like a collection of hills. There are lots of desirable spots and lots of space in between. The idea of elbowing people out of your way to get somewhere - literally or metaphorically - seems foreign here.
Vestal McIntyre
Image
He just seems as cool as ever. I can smell him. Even on the other side, there is smell. Like, when babies are born, there's two smells-one is chicken soup, which is the flesh, and the other is lilacs, which is coming from the spiritual garden. The spirit has a lilac smell.
Carlos Santana
Image
I think I'm a full-time artist, a full-time urban planner, and a full-time preacher with an aspiration of no longer needing any of those titles. Rather, I'm trying to do what for some seems a very messy work or a complicated work.
Theaster Gates

I had also wanted to work with Aaron McGruder for a long time and there were a few other people on the project that I really wanted to work with,so it seems like a miracle of a project ['Black Jesus'] was handed to me.
Kali Hawk

If you ever meet a guy and you fall in love with him, but because of some weird genetic mutation he doesn't seem to return the feeling?... Wear that dress.
Ann Brashares
Image
The collaboration which sometimes follows is seldom based on good will: usually on desire, rage, fear, pity or longing. The modern illusion concerning painting (which post-modernism has done nothing to correct) is that the artist is the creator. Rather he is a reciever. What seems like creaton is the act of giving form to what he has recieved.
John Berger
Image
Popular culture is simply a reflection of what the majority seems to want.
Victor Davis Hanson
Image
He didn't seem to realize that three excuses was as good as no excuse.
Ann Brashares
Image
In times of anarchy one may seem a despot in order to be a saviour.
Victor de Riqueti, marquis de Mirabeau
Image
Any life will seem dramatic if you omit mention of most of it.
Ann Beattie
Image
The idea that we are alone in the universe seems to me completely implausible and arrogant, considering the number of planets and stars that we know exist, it's extremely unlikely that we are the only form of evolved life.
Stephen Hawking
Image
Certain souls seem hard because they are capable of strong feelings, and they sometimes go to rather extreme lengths their apparent unconcern and cruelty are but ways, known only to themselves, of feeling more strongly than others.
Marquis de Sade
Image
Everything seems simpler from a distance.
Gail Tsukiyama
Image
Some people seem to be born to suffer.
August Strindberg
Image
I'm at my strongest when I'm able to let go, when I suspend my beliefs as well as disbeliefs, and leave myself open to all possibilities. That also seems to be when I'm able to experience the most internal clarity and synchronicities.
Anita Moorjani
Image
To be knocked out doesn't mean what it seems. A boxer does not have to get up.
Joyce Carol Oates
Image
Sing to me, she said. That would be valiant, to raise your voice in this dark, lonely place, and it will be useful as well. Sing to me, sing loudly-drown out my dreams, keep me from remembering whatever wants me to remember it. Sing to me, my lord prince, if it please you. It may not seem a hero's task, but I would be glad of it.
Peter S. Beagle
Image
Men no longer prefer blondes. Today gentlemen seem to prefer gentlemen.
Anita Loos
Image
That freedom that Picasso afforded himself, to be an artist in a huge number of ways, seems to be a huge psychological liberation.
