Miguel de Cervantes
Captivity is the greatest of all evils that can befall one.

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
Fear has many eyes and can see things underground.
Miguel de Cervantes
I believe there's no proverb but what is true they are all so many sentences and maxims drawn from experience, the universal mother of sciences.
