| Back | "A truce to thy proverbs, Sancho," exclaimed Don Quixote; "any one of those thou hast uttered would suffice to explain thy meaning; many a time have I recommended thee not to be so lavish with proverbs and to exercise some moderation in delivering them; but it seems to me it is only 'preaching in the desert;' 'my mother beats me and I go on with my tricks." |

| Front | -No más refranes, Sancho -dijo don Quijote-, pues cualquiera de los que has dicho basta para dar a entender tu pensamiento; y muchas veces te he aconsejado que no seas tan pródigo en refranes y que te vayas a la mano en decirlos; pero paréceme que es predicar en desierto, y "castígame mi madre, y yo trómpogelas". |
