| Back | "Nay, Sancho," said Don Quixote, "the fool knows nothing, either in his own house or in anybody else's, for no wise structure of any sort can stand on a foundation of folly; but let us say no more about it, Sancho, for if thou governest badly, thine will be the fault and mine the shame; but I comfort myself with having done my duty in advising thee as earnestly and as wisely as I could; and thus I am released from my obligations and my promise. |

| Front | -Eso no, Sancho -respondió don Quijote-, que el necio en su casa ni en la ajena sabe nada, a causa que sobre el aumento de la necedad no asienta ningún discreto edificio. Y dejemos esto aquí, Sancho, que si mal gobernares, tuya será la culpa, y mía la vergüenza; mas consuélome que he hecho lo que debía en aconsejarte con las veras y con la discreción a mí posible: con esto salgo de mi obligación y de mi promesa. |
