Miguel De Cervantes Saavedra Quotes

The Poor Gentleman Has No Way Of Showing That He Is A Gentleman But By Virtue, By Being Affable, Well-bred, Courteous, Gentle-mannered, And Kindly, Not Haughty, Arrogant, Or Censorious, But Above All By Being Charitable; For By Two Maravedis Given With A Cheerful Heart To The Poor, He Will Show Himself As Generous As He Who Distributes Alms With Bell-ringing, And No One That Perceives Him To Be Endowed With The Virtues I Have Named, Even Though He Know Him Not, Will Fail To Recognise And Set Him Down As One Of Good Blood; And It Would Be Strange Were It Not So; Praise Has Ever Been The Reward Of Virtue, And Those Who Are Virtuous Cannot Fail To Receive Commendation.
