History Quotes

दूसरी लहर की नारीवादियों ने पितृसत्ता को उखाड़ फेंकने की कोशिश नहीं की। इसके बजाय, उन्होंने अपने सामने मौजूद चुनौतियों का विश्लेषण किया और इसके हर रूप और अभिव्यक्ति के खिलाफ संघर्ष किया।

Second-wave feminists didn't look for an overthrow of patriarchy. Instead, they analyzed what they were up against and fought it in all of its varied manifestations.

अगर हम क्षेत्रीयता (रीजनलिज्म) को मानव संस्कृति के रूप में परिभाषित करें, तो सतही तौर पर वह अब नहीं रही। लेकिन क्या हो अगर हम क्षेत्रीयता को मानव संस्कृति से भी पुरानी किसी चीज़ के रूप में परिभाषित करें?

On a surface level, regionalism is gone, if we define regionalism as human culture. But, what if we define regionalism as something older than human culture?

मैंने अपनी दादी से पूछा कि हंगरी का कोई यहूदी व्यक्ति यहूदी होने का अनुभव कैसे कर सकता है। मेरी दादी का जवाब था कि एकमात्र विकल्प "चुप रहना" है। मैं उन्हें समझ सकता हूँ क्योंकि वह होलोकॉस्ट (यातना शिविर) से जीवित बची थीं, और अपनी जान बचाने के लिए उन्हें चुप रहना पड़ा था। लेकिन जब मैं बच्चा था तब मैंने अपनी दादी की बात नहीं मानी थी, और इस मामले में भी मैं उनकी बात नहीं मान रहा हूँ।

I asked my grandmother how a Hungarian Jewish person can experience being Jewish. My grandmother answered was the only choice was to "keep quiet." I can understand her because she was a Holocaust survivor, and for her survival, she had to keep quiet. But I didn't obey my grandmother when I was a child, and in this case, I don't obey her either.

मैंने नृविज्ञान (एंथ्रोपोलॉजी) और कला इतिहास की पढ़ाई की है, क्योंकि जीवंत परंपराएँ हमेशा से मुझे आकर्षित करती रही हैं।

I studied anthropology and art history, as I have always been captivated by living traditions.

मैं चाहती हूँ कि लोग सिएना को केवल पर्यटकों की नजर से देखे जाने वाले आम 'पालियो' से कुछ अलग और गहराई से समझ सकें। यह शहर खूबसूरती, रोमांस और परंपराओं से तो भरा है ही, साथ ही इसमें सत्ता, साजिशें और घूसखोरी भी है। यह संक्षेप में कहें तो पूरा इटली है, जहाँ खूबसूरती और धोखे का एक अनोखा मेल देखने को मिलता है।

I would like people to feel that they've understood something more about Siena than the usual Palio as seen by tourists. It is full of beauty, romance and tradition, but also power, schemes and bribery. It's Italy in a nutshell, with all its incredible mixture of beauty and betrayal.

जब मैंने प्रॉडक्शन शुरू किया था, तो यह इंग्लैंड में चैनल 4 की शुरुआत का दौर था। निकोलस निकलबी, जिस पर एक प्रोड्यूसर के तौर पर मेरा नाम पहली बार आया, चैनल 4 का कॉन्ट्रैक्ट 001 था—वही इंग्लैंड में स्वतंत्र प्रॉडक्शन यानी इंडिपेंडेंट सेक्टर की शुरुआत और उसका उभार था।

When I started producing it was right at the beginning Channel 4 in England. Nicholas Nickelby which was my first credit as a producer was Contract 001 at Channel 4 - that was the start of independent production in England and the emergence of an independent sector.

मातृत्‍व की नैतिकता 19वीं सदी की नारीवादियों के यूटोपिया (आदर्शलोक) का केंद्र थी। मुझे नहीं लगता कि आज की महिलाएँ मातृत्व को अपनी व्यक्तिगत शक्ति के स्रोत के रूप में देखती हैं, राजनीतिक शक्ति तो दूर की बात है। मुझे नहीं लगता कि आज की महिलाओं में यह अहساس है कि माँ के रूप में उनका जीवन उन्हें दुनिया को बेहतर बनाने के लिए कोई विशेष शक्ति या गुण देता है। मुझे लगता है कि महिलाएँ माँ के रूप में अपने जीवन को अपने कामकाजी जीवन के एक पूरक के रूप में देखती हैं—एक संतोषजनक और महत्वपूर्ण पूरक, इसमें कोई दो राय नहीं—लेकिन यह कुछ ऐसा है जो वे काम करने के अलावा करती हैं, इसलिए नहीं कि एक पत्नी और माँ होने से उन्हें दुनिया को सुधारने में कोई स्पष्ट बढ़त मिलती है।

An ethic of maternalism was central to the utopianism of 19th century feminists. I don't think that today's women see motherhood as a source of personal power, let alone political power. I don't think that women now have that same sense that their lives as mothers gives them any special power or virtue. I think women see their lives as mothers as an adjunct to their working lives - a fulfilling and important adjunct, to be sure - but something they do in addition to working in the public realm, not because being a wife and mother gives them a distinct edge in improving the world as we know it.

एंटोनियो बोलिवर साल्वाडोर की कहानी अविश्वसनीय है क्योंकि वह ओकैना जनजाति के बचे हुए आखिरी लोगों में से एक हैं। ओकैना लोग—और ओकैना भाषा—इस पीढ़ी में मूल रूप से लगभग गायब होने वाली है। आप जानते ही हैं, इसे बोलने वाले बहुत कम लोग बचे हैं। और वह उनमें से एक हैं।

Antonio Bolivar Salvador has an incredible story because he's one of the last Ocaina people left. The Ocaina people are - and the Ocaina language is basically about to disappear in this generation. You know, there are very few people that speak it. And he's one of them.

इतिहास का सबसे बड़ा दानव।

मैं सचमुच यह मानता हूँ कि भले ही आम इंसान को परवाह न हो, लेकिन यह वाकई एक बहुत बड़ा मुद्दा है। यह हमारे लोकतंत्र का 240 वर्षों से एक बुनियादी सिद्धांत रहा है।

I do think that even if the average person doesn't care, it IS a big deal. Like, it's been a foundational principle of our democracy for 240 years.

यह दो अलग-अलग दुनियाओं का वह मेल है जो ब्रिटिश पहचान को अनोखा बनाता है - हमारे पास एक कुलीन और गौरवशाली इतिहास है, लेकिन हमेशा उसकी तुलना किसी विद्रोही स्वभाव से की जाती है।

It is the clash of two different worlds that makes British-ness unique - we have an aristocratic, noble history, but it is always contrasted with something rebellious.

तो इस तरह सामूहिक चेतना में बदलाव आया, और फिर युद्ध के बाद एक बड़ा उछाल आया, पश्चिम की ओर यह विस्तार हुआ। यह ठीक 1950 के दशक जैसा था। अमेरिकी अर्थव्यवस्था पूरी रफ़्तार से दौड़ रही थी। जो लोग इन समुदायों में जाते और अपने जीवन को एक यूटोपियाई सपने के इर्द-गिर्द व्यवस्थित करते, वे अब पश्चिम की दुनिया के सपने देख रहे थे।

So there's that change of general consciousness, and then there's this boom after the war, this expansion into the West. It was like the 1950s. The American economy was pumping at top speed. The kinds of people who would move into these communities and organize their lives around a utopian dream now had dreams about the West.

'नास्तिक' इसके लिए शायद सही शब्द नहीं है क्योंकि वे किसी न किसी रूप में प्रबोधन काल के, बड़े अक्षर वाले 'प्रकृति' रूपी भगवान में विश्वास रखते थे। लेकिन ये ऐसे लोग थे जिनकी उस दौर में विधर्मियों (infidels) के रूप में आलोचना की जाती थी।

Atheist isn't really the right word because they tended to believe in some sort of Enlightenment, capital 'N' Nature kind of god. But these were people who in their times were criticized as infidels.

ये एसिड लेने वाले कॉलेज के लड़के नहीं थे। वे उपदेशक, बैंकर, किसान और अमेरिकी समाज के वे लोग थे जो ऐसे विचारों को अपना रहे थे जो आज हमें बेहद पागलपन भरे लगते हैं। इन लोगों के पास भविष्य को लेकर सबसे क्रांतिकारी नज़रिया था। और यह सब एक ऐसे दौर में हो रहा था जिसे आमतौर पर हम यौन प्रयोगों, साम्यवाद या इस तरह की चीज़ों से जोड़कर नहीं देखते।

These weren't college kids on acid. They were preachers, and bankers, and farmers, and the salt of American society subscribing to ideas that now seem so wild to us. These people had the most radical visions of what the future could be. And this was happening in an era we don't typically associate with sexual experimentation, or communism, or things like that.

जिस चीज़ ने इन यूटोपियाई समुदायों को बढ़ावा दिया था, वह इस अटूट विश्वास में निहित था—न कि केवल आशावाद की आम भावना में—कि धरती जल्द ही स्वर्ग बनने वाली है। गृहयुद्ध के बाद यह विचार टिक नहीं पाया।

The thing that had fueled these utopian communities was a literal belief, and not just a general sense of optimism, that the earth was about to become a paradise. That idea cannot hold water after the war.

मुझे डर है कि मैंने अमेरिकी गृहयुद्ध के उन यूटोपियावादियों पर पड़े प्रभाव को शायद कुछ ज़्यादा ही बढ़ा-चढ़ाकर कह दिया है। जब तक गृहयुद्ध शुरू हुआ, तब तक ज़्यादातर समुदाय व्यापक अमेरिकी समाज से काफ़ी हद तक कट चुके थे। उनकी भाषणबाज़ी में आज भी दुनिया को बदलने की बातें होती थीं, लेकिन अपने पड़ोसियों से उनका बहुत ज़्यादा मेल-जोल नहीं रह गया था।

I worry that I may have overstated the impact of Civil War on the utopians. By the time the Civil War comes, most of the communities were quite separated from the wider American society. Their rhetoric is still about transforming the world, but they're not having that much traffic with their neighbors.

ऐसे लोग भी हैं जो जर्मनी के दोनों में से किसी भी हिस्से में रहे, लेकिन जिनका कभी भी दूसरे हिस्से से—चाहे वह पूर्व जर्मनी हो या पश्चिम जर्मनी—कोई संबंध नहीं रहा और न ही आज है।

There are also people who lived in either side of Germany, but who never had or have any relationship with the other side whether it was former East or former West Germany.

हम सिर्फ यह तर्क देते हैं कि जलवायु परिवर्तन के परिणाम भी इसके दुष्प्रभावों में से एक थे, लेकिन दिलचस्प बात यह है कि 2008 में भोजन को लेकर इस समस्या को फिर से जीवित करने के लिए भले ही एक बड़ा प्रयास किया गया हो, पर अब गृहयुद्ध के नतीजों ने स्थिति को और भी ज़्यादा बदतर बना दिया है।

We simply argue that climate change consequences was one of the impacts, but interestingly enough, even though a major effort was made in 2008 to try and resurrect the problem over food, now the consequences of the civil war are making the situation even worse.

मुझे लगता है कि इतिहास में कुछ सबसे महत्वपूर्ण घटनाएँ तब होती हैं जब सही लोग, सही जगह पर, सही समय पर एक साथ आ जाते हैं और मुझे लगता है कि हम वही हैं।

I think some of the most significant things happen in history when you get the right people in the right place at the right time and I think that's what we are.

मुझे याद है कि जब मेरे माता-पिता छोटे थे, तो वे अपने माता-पिता और दादा-दादी के बारे में किस्से सुनाया करते थे कि कैसे उन्हें उनके आरक्षण (रिजर्वेशन) से उठाकर बोर्डिंग स्कूलों में ले जाया गया था, और उन्हें एक तरह से यह सिखाया गया था कि वे मूल अमेरिकी (नेटिव अमेरिकन) होने के नाते खुद पर शर्मिंदा महसूस करें। उस बात का असर आज भी महसूस किया जा सकता है।

I remember hearing stories from my mother and father about their parents and grandparents when they were taken off the reservation, taken to the boarding schools, and pretty much taught to be ashamed of who they were as Native Americans. You can feel that impact today.
