In great dangers, the small hope of overcoming them draws desperate strength from the spirit.
En los grandes perigros, la poca esperanza de vencerlos saca del ánimo desesperadas fuerzas.

More quotes by Miguel de Cervantes
There's not the least thing can be said or done, but people will talk and find fault.
Fear is sharp-sighted, and can see things underground, and much more in the skies.
Take care, Your Worship, those things over there are not giants but windmills.
