Oscar Wilde ()

Actors are fortunate. They can choose whether they will appear in tragedy or in comedy, whether they will suffer or make merry, laugh or shed tears. But in real life it is different. Most men and women are forced to perform parts for which they have no qualifications. Our Guildensterns ülay Hamlet for us, and our Hamlets have to jest like Prince Hal. The world is a stage, but the play is badly cast.
(Lord Arthur Savile´s Crime, in: Complete Works of O.W., Collins, London/Glasgow 1985, p. 174 – <2>.)Oscar Wilde World

Oscar Wilde (1854-1900)

Children begin by loving their parents; after a time they judge them; rarely, if ever, do they forgive them.
Man is least himself when he talks in his own person. Give him a mask, and he will tell you the truth.
A man cannot be too careful in the choice of his enemies.
Ordinery rimes can be stolen; real rimes cannot. In your soul are infintely precious things that cannot be taken from you.
By giving us the opinions od the uneducated, journalism keeps us in touch with the ignorance od the community.
The truth is rarely pure and never simple.
Everything popular is wrong.
True progres sis to know more, and be more, and to do more.
Whenever people agree with me I always feel I must be wrong.
Life imitates art far more than art imitates Life.
A thing is not necessarily true because a man dies for it.
All art is quite useless.
Why was I born with such comtemporaries?
Ridicule is the tribute paid to the genius by the mediocrities.
Moderation is a fatal thing. Nothing succeedes like excess.
The public is wonderfully tolerant. It forgives everything except genius.

Žalm 55 ()

¹² Nebo ne nějaký zjevný nepřítel útržky mi činil, sic jinak snesl bych to; ani ten, kdož mne nenávidí, pozdvihl se proti mně, nebo skryl bych se před ním: 13Ale ty, člověče, mně rovný, vůdce můj a domácí můj, 14Ješto jsme spolu mile tajné rady držívali, a do domu Božího společně chodívali.
(6630, Kralic.překl. 1579-93, s. 515 – Ž 55, 12-14.)
12. (55:13) Nebo ne [nějaký] nepřítel útržky mi činil, sic jinak snesl bych [to;] ani ten, kdož mne nenávidí, pozdvihl se proti mně, nebo skryl bych se před ním:
13. (55:14) Ale ty, člověče mně rovný, vůdce můj a domácí můj;
14. (55:15) Ješto jsme spolu mile tajné rady držívali, [a] do domu Božího společně chodívali.

55:12 Indeed, ²³ it is not an enemy who insults me, or else I could bear it; it is not one who hates me who arrogantly taunts me,24 or else I could hide from him. 55:13 But it is you,25 a man like me,26 my close friend in whom I confided.27 55:14 We would share personal thoughts with each other;28 in God’s temple we would walk together among the crowd.

23tn Or „for.“
24tn Heb „[who] magnifies against me.“ See Pss 35:26; 38:16.
25sn It is you. The psalmist addresses the apparent ringleader of the opposition, an individual who was once his friend.
26tn Heb „a man according to my value,“ i.e., „a person such as I.“
27tn Heb „my close friend, one known by me.“
28tn Heb „who together we would make counsel sweet.“ The imperfect verbal forms here and in the next line draw attention to the ongoing nature of the actions (the so-called customary use of the imperfect). Their relationship was characterized by such intimacy and friendship. See IBHS 502-3 §31.2b.

12Wenn mich doch mein Feind schändete, wollte ich's leiden; und wenn mein Hasser wider mich pochte, wollte ich mich vor ihm verbergen.
13Du aber bist mein Geselle, mein Freund und mein Verwandter,
14die wir freundlich miteinander waren unter uns; wir wandelten im Hause Gottes unter der Menge.

13 Si c'était l'ennemi[d] qui venait m'insulter,
je le supporterais.
Si celui qui me hait[e] s'élevait contre moi,
je pourrais me cacher de lui.
14 Mais c'est toi, toi qui es un homme de mon rang,
toi, mon ami et mon intime,
15 avec qui j'échangeais des confidences,
quand nous allions ensemble avec la foule[f] dans la maison de Dieu...

12For it is (T)not an enemy who reproaches me,
Then I could bear it;
Nor is it one who hates me who (U)has exalted himself against me,
Then I could hide myself from him.
13But it is you, a man my equal,
My (V)companion and my (W)familiar friend;
14We who had sweet [c]fellowship together
(X)Walked in the house of God in the throng.

Sirach ()

Od nepřátel svých odděl se, a přátel svých šetř se.

Keep yourself far from your enemies, and be on guard toward your friends.
