A knight errant who turns mad for a reason deserves neither merit nor thanks. The thing is to do it without cause
Miguel de CervantesWhen the severity of the law is to be softened, let pity, not bribes, be the motive.
Miguel de CervantesLaws that only threaten, and are not kept, become like the log that was given to the frogs to be their king, which they feared at first, but soon scorned and trampled on.
Miguel de CervantesHappy the man to whom heaven has given a morsel of bread without laying him under the obligation of thanking any other for it than heaven itself.
