| Back | "Ah, sinner that I am!" said Don Quixote, "how bad it looks in governors not to know how to read or write; for let me tell thee, Sancho, when a man knows not how to read, or is left-handed, it argues one of two things; either that he was the son of exceedingly mean and lowly parents, or that he himself was so incorrigible and ill-conditioned that neither good company nor good teaching could make any impression on him. It is a great defect that thou labourest under, and therefore I would have thee learn at any rate to sign thy name." |

| Front | -¡Ah, pecador de mí -respondió don Quijote-, y qué mal parece en los gobernadores el no saber leer ni escribir!; porque has de saber, ¡oh Sancho!, que no saber un hombre leer, o ser zurdo, arguye una de dos cosas: o que fue hijo de padres demasiado de humildes y bajos, o él tan travieso y malo que no pudo entrar en el buen uso ni la buena doctrina. |
