― William Clark

“Poetry is like an innocent young maiden who is extremely beautiful, and whom many other maidens, who are the other fields of knowledge, are careful to enrich, polish, and adorn, and she must be served by all of them. Her alchemy is such that the person who knows how to treat her will turn her into purest gold of inestimable value...she should not be allowed in the company of scoundrels or the ignorant mob incapable of knowing or appreciating the treasures that lie within her.”
― Cervantes

“Art does not surpass nature but perfects it.”
― Cervantes

“In the shadow of feigned cripples and false wounds come the strong arms of thieves and very healthy drunkards.”
― Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra, Don Quixote
