Sir Knight of the Sorrowful Face, I cannot bear with patience some of the things your Grace says. They are enough to make me suspect that all you have told me about knighthood and winning kingdoms and empires, of bestowing islands and giving me other favors and honors according to the customs of chivalry must all be hot air and lies, and all a cock and bull story or cock and ball story or whatsoever you term it.

Additional quotes by Miguel de Cervantes

Por desgracia, en el mundo la verdad anda escondida, por los rincones disfrazada con los nombres de filosofía, ciencia y franqueza, mientras que la mentira anda por calles, plazas y salones, disfrazada con los brillantes nombres de educación, galantería, etiqueta, y otros mucho más hipócritas todavía.
