More quotes by Miguel de Cervantes
In every case, the remedy is to take action. Get clear about exactly what it is that you need to learn and exactly what you need to do to learn it. BEING CLEAR KILLS FEAR. Make it thy business to know thyself, which is the most difficult lesson in the world.
Miguel de Cervantes
It is the part of a wise man to keep himself today for tomorrow, and not to venture all his eggs in one basket.
Miguel de Cervantes

Miguel de Cervantes
Too much sanity may be madness!
Miguel de Cervantes
They must take me for a fool, or even worse, a lunatic. And no wonder ,for I am so intensely conscious of my misfortune and my misery is so overwhelming that I am powerless to resist it and am being turned into stone, devoid of all knowledge or feeling.
Miguel de Cervantes
God bears with the wicked, but not forever.
