De Cervantes Prize

Famous quotes containing the words cervantes and/or prize:

    One who has not only the four S’s, which are required in every good lover, but even the whole alphabet; as for example ... Agreeable, Bountiful, Constant, Dutiful, Easy, Faithful, Gallant, Honourable, Ingenious, Kind, Loyal, Mild, Noble, Officious, Prudent, Quiet, Rich, Secret, True, Valiant, Wise; the X indeed, is too harsh a letter to agree with him, but he is Young and Zealous.

    Knowing I loved my books, he furnished me
    From mine own library with volumes that
    I prize above my dukedom.
