“I should be very willing to redress
Men’s wrongs, and rather check than punish crimes,
Had not Cervantes, in that all too true tale
Of Quixote, shown how all such efforts fail.”

“One should always look to the end of everything, how it will finally come out. For the god has shown blessedness to many only to overturn them utterly in the end.”
