Yes, funny fact. A translation of a classic or a great writer can be poor or excellent, but it can NEVER be better. Tolstoy your read - but not the Russian original. The Bible you read - but not the Hebrew/Greek original. The truth is, translations are better than the original AND never better than the original - at the same time. This is the 5th dimension or difference or also-true. Once you read the translation, it cannot be better.
