Juana Ines De La Cruz Quotes

The Most Daring Flights Of Genius Do Not Always Soar Assured When They Seek A Throne In The Fire & Find A Grave In Copious Tears.
For Knowledge Is Also A Vice: If It Is Not Constantly Curbed, & If This Is Not Acknowledged, The Greater The Havoc It Wreaks;
& If The Flight Is Not Brought Down, Fed & Fattened On Subtleties It Will Forget The Essential For The Sake Of The Rare & Strange.
If A Skilled Hand Does Not Prevent The Growth Of A Thickly Leafed Tree, Its Proliferating Branches Will Steal The Fruit.
