Today’s Quotation: Miguel de Cervantes (1547-1616) on evil, good and change

It is impossible for good or evil to last for ever; and hence it follows that the evil having lasted long, the good must be now nigh at hand.

Miguel de Cervantes (1547-1616) Discuss

My take on this:

“If evel and good would be natural, like weather is , than yes one expeects change. In society though such changes have been so rare, like rain in the Sahara Desert.

It just desn’t happen than way! (no, I’m not pessimistic: It took me a lifetime to reach this wisdom”)

    • Remarkable, Frizztext. I like your views on Cervantes’s life. I like the directness and simplicity. It creates clarity. I will have to read all your comments (later today I hope).
