"Open thine eyes, longed–for home, and see how thy son Sancho Panza comes back to thee, if not very rich, very well whipped! Open thine arms and receive, too, thy son Don Quixote, who, if he comes vanquishe by the arm of another, comes victor over himself, which, as he himself has told me, is the greatest victory anyone can desire. I'm bringing back money, for if I was well whipped, I went mounted like a gentleman."

"Voulez-vos
que je sois un enragé de la viande,
ou bien, changeant de ton comme les couleurs du ciel-
voulez-vous
que je sois impeccablement tendre,
un nuage en pantalon au lieu d'un homme charnel?"

Vladimir Maïakovski
