“To translate, one must have a style of his own, for otherwise the translation will have no rhythm or nuance, which come from the process of artistically thinking through and molding the sentences; they cannot be reconstituted by piecemeal imitation. The problem of translation is to retreat to a simpler tenor of one's own style and creatively adjust this to one's author.”
Paul Goodman
“No change in musical style will survive unless it is accompanied by a change in clothing style. Rock is to dress up to.”
Frank Zappa

“Her hat is a creation that will never go out of style; it will just look ridiculous year after year.”

Frank Dane
“After all, it is style alone by which posterity will judge of a great work, for an author can have nothing truly his own but his style”
Isaac Disraeli
“I will not show off [written in Old English style font]”
