A Quote by Charles Caleb Colton

He who studies books alone will know how things ought to be, and he who studies men will know how they are. — © Charles Caleb Colton
He who studies books alone will know how things ought to be, and he who studies men will know how they are.
He that studies books alone, will know how things ought to be; and he that studies men, will know how things are.
I'm even stunned at some of the majors you can get in college these days. Like you can major in the mating habits of the Australian rabbit bat, major in leisure studies... Okay, get a journalism major. Okay, education major, journalism major. Right. Philosophy major, right. Archeology major. I don't know, whatever it is. Major in ballroom dance, of course. It doesn't replace work. How about a major in film studies? How about a major in black studies? How about a major in women studies? How about a major in home ec? Oops, sorry! No such thing.

General editors' preface The growth of translation studies as a separate discipline is a success story of the 1980s.

This series of books will reflect the breadth of work in translation studies and will enable readers to share in the exciting new developments that are taking place at the present time.
How we live is so different from how we ought to live that he who studies what ought to be done rather than what is done will learn the way to his downfall rather than to his preservation.
