So that Michelangelo might paint certain figures on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel, so that Shakespeare might write certain speeches and Keats his poems, it seemed to me worthwhile that countless millions should have lived and suffered and died.
Para que Michelangelo pudesse decorar o teto da Capela Sistina, para que Shakespeare pudesse escrever alguns diálogos e Keats seus poemas, eu acho válido que milhões e milhões de pessoas tenham vivido, sofrido e morrido.
