Don Quixote by Cervantes

Favourite words from a book for a while
Don Quixote
Miguel de Cervantes


"I take it to be the wisest course to jog home and look after our harvest, and not to run rambling from Ceca to Meca, least we leap out of the frying pan and into the fire"
This can also be iterated as "out of God's blessings into the warm Sun"

I think it is impossible for the insipid struggle of life to be summarised in so perfect a sentence. Pain is inevitable. That's a fact that most people struggle to realise least come to terms with.
