Famous quotes containing the words richard and/or rodriguez:

    For every man that Bolingbroke hath pressed
    To lift shrewd steel against our golden crown,
    God for his Richard hath in heavenly pay
    A glorious angel. Then if angels fight,
    Weak men must fall; for heaven still guards the right.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    As you see yourself, I once saw myself; as you see me now, you will be seen.
    —Mexican proverb quoted in “Night and Day,” Frontiers, Richard Rodriguez (1990)
