Excerpt from Scientific Memoirs, Selected From the Transactions of Foreign Academies of Science, and From Foreign Journals, 1853: Natural History
"Every translator ought to regard himself as a broker in the great intellectua traffic of the world, and to consider it his business to promote the barter of the pro duce of mind. For, whatever people may say of the inadequacy of translation, - it is and must ever be, one of the most important and meritorious occupations in the great commerce of the human race." - Goethe, Kurut und Alterthum.
