More From Miguel Angel Ruiz

I work in hebrew. hebrew is deeply inspired by other languages. not now, for the last three thousand years, hebrew has been penetrated and fertilized by ancient semitic languages - by aramaic, by greek, by latin, by arabic, by yiddish, by latino, by german, by russian, by english, i could go on and on. it's very much like english. the english language took in many many fertilizations, many many genes, from other languages, from foreign languages - latin, french, nordic languages, german, scandinavian languages. every language has influences and is an influence.

Of course my books are translated into many languages. i have here, in my home, translations on my shelf of my books into forty-five different languages. almost none of them i can read. i can read only the english editions. but, i know that a translation of a work of literature is like playing a violin concerto on the piano. you can do this. you can do this very successfully on one strict condition: never try to force the piano to produce the sounds of the violin. this will be grotesque. so, different musical instruments provide for different music.

This rose became a bandanna, which became a house, which became infused with all passion, which became a hideaway, which became yes i would like to have dinner, which became hands, which became lands, shores, beaches, natives on the stones, staring and wild beasts in the trees, chasing the hats of lost hunters, and all this deserves a tone.

There are certain concepts, which exist in english, and are unthinkable, untranslatable into hebrew and vice versa. hebrew has a system of tenses, which is, in a big way, different from the english system of tenses, probably different than any european system of tenses, which means a different sense of reality, which means a different concept of time. so, things can be translated, but they become different.

I'm feeling really grateful. i'm feeling grateful that i've been able to participate in this game for as long as i have. i'm feeling grateful that i've been able to tell my stories. i don't know that my mom and dad are that grateful, or carey [hart, pink's husband], but it's been good for me. i'm grateful if i've kept one girl from feeling different or ugly or unempowered.

We are in the position of a little child entering a huge library, whose walls are covered to the ceiling with books in many different languages. the child knows that someone must have written those books. it does not know who or how. it does not understand the the languages in which they are written. the child notes a definite plan in the arrangement of the books, a mysterious order, which it does not comprehend but only dimly suspects.
