Saidbook

Finally, from so little sleeping and so much reading, his brain dried up and he went completely out of his mind.

— Miguel de Cervantes El ingenioso hidalgo don Quixote de la Mancha (The Ingenious Gentleman Don Quixote of La Mancha) (1605)

Y así, del poco dormir y del mucho leer, se le secó el cerebro, de manera que vino a perder el juicio.
