Miguel de Cervantes
Many littles make a much.
Miguel de Cervantes

Miguel de Cervantes
Arms are my ornaments, warfare my repose.
Miguel de Cervantes
There are two kinds of people in this world, my grandmother used to say: the Have's and the Have-not's, and she stuck to the Have's. And today, Señor Don Quixote, people are more interested in having than in knowing. An ass covered with gold makes a better impression than a horse with a packsaddle.

Miguel de Cervantes
In order to attain the impossible, one must attempt the absurd.
Miguel de Cervantes
I drink when I have occasion, and sometimes when I have no occasion.
Miguel de Cervantes
All sorrows are less with bread.
Miguel de Cervantes
To withdraw is not to run away, and to stay is no wise action, when there's more reason to fear than to hope.
Miguel de Cervantes
Tis a dainty thing to command, though 'twere but a flock of sheep.
Miguel de Cervantes
Anyone who does not know how to make the most of his luck has no right to complain if it passes by him.
