" "

Vos, hermano, idos a ser gobierno o ínsulo, y entonaos a vuestro gusto; que mi hija ni yo, por el siglo de mi madre, que no nos hemos de mudar un paso de nuestra aldea: la mujer honrada, la pierna quebrada, y en casa; y la doncella honesta, el hacer algo es su fiesta. Idos con vuestro don Quijote a vuestras aventuras, y dejadnos a nosotras con nuestras malas venturas, que Dios nos las mejorará como seamos buenas; y yo no sé, por cierto, quién le puso a él don, que no tuvieron sus padres ni sus agüelos.

Additional quotes by Miguel de Cervantes

There are two kinds of beauty, one being of the soul and the other of the body,
That of the soul is revealed through intelligence, modesty, right conduct,
Generosity and good breeding, all of which qualities may exist in an ugly man;
And when one's gaze is fixed upon beauty of this sort and not upon that of the body,
Love is usually born suddenly and violently.
