De Cervantes Prize

Famous quotes containing the words cervantes and/or prize:

    It seldom happens that any felicity comes so pure as not to be tempered and allayed by some mixture of sorrow.
    —Miguel De Cervantes (1547–1616)

    He saw, he wish’d, and to the prize aspir’d.
    Resolv’d to win, he meditates the way,
    By force to ravish, or by fraud betray;
    For when success a lover’s toil attends,
    Few ask, if fraud or force attain’d his ends.
    Alexander Pope (1688–1744)
