The Jain #Sanskrit anthologist Lakṣmaṇa on shady people: दुर्जनैरुच्यमानानि वचांसि मधुराण्यपि । अकालकुसुमानीव संत्रासं जनयन्ति नः ॥ ८.७ ॥ Though the things that scoundrels tell us Might sound sweet, They make us feel anxious Like flowers blooming out of season.

दुर्जनैरुच्यमानानि वचांसि मधुराण्यपि ।

Though the things that scoundrels tell us 
Might sound sweet,
They make us feel anxious 
Like flowers blooming out of season.

Another #Sanskrit verse on #scoundrels in Lakṣmaṇa's anthology: वयसः परिणामे ऽपि यः खलः खल एव सः । सुपक्वमपि माधुर्यं नोपयातीन्द्रवारुणम् ॥ A scoundrel is still a scoundrel, Even after the effects of age. A bitter gourd, even when fully ripe, Won't ever turn sweet.

वयसः परिणामे ऽपि यः खलः खल एव सः ।

A scoundrel is still a scoundrel,
Even after the effects of age.
A bitter gourd, even when fully ripe,
Won't ever turn sweet.

Peter Newmark, on literal vs. free translation: "Adherents to the former favour source-text oriented translation and are sometimes referred to as ‘sourcerers,’ while the latter accommodate their translation to the receiving, or ‘target’ culture and are known as ‘targeteers.’"

my current vote for the coolest word in the Sanskrit language: हैयंगवीनम् - ghee (butter) made of milk from a cow milked yesterday. (cf. Raghuvaṃśa 1.45). would make a great name for a heavy metal band!🤘
