The highest creation of genius has been achieved by Shakespeare and Cervantes, almost alone.

Cervantes and Shakespeare, who died almost simultaneously, are the central western authors, at least since Dante, and no writer since has matched them, not Tolstoy or Goethe, Dickens, Proust, Joyce. Context cannot hold Cervantes and Shakespeare: the Spanish golden age and the Elizabethan-Jacobean era are secondary when we attempt a full appreciation of what we are given.

Shakespeare one gets acquainted with without knowing how. It is part of an Englishmanโ€™s constitution. His thoughts and beauties are so spread abroad that one touches them every where, one is intimate with him by instinct.

Dolt and ass that I am I have lived more than 29 years, and until a few days ago, never made close acquaintance with the divine William. Ah, heโ€™s full of sermons-on-the-mount, and gentle, aye, almost as Jesus. I take such men to be inspired. I fancy that this moment Shakespeare in heaven ranks with Gabriel, Raphael and Michael. And if another Messiah ever comes twill be in Shakespeareโ€™s person.

The verbal poetical texture of Shakespeare is the greatest the world has known, and is immensely superior to the structure of his plays as plays.

โ€”Vladimir Nabokov



Cervantes, Don Quixoteโ€”I read that every year, as some do the Bible.

โ€”William Faulkner



Don Quixote looms so wonderfully above the skyline of literature, a gaunt giant on a lean nag, that the book lives and will live through his sheer vitalityโ€ฆ The parody has become a paragon.

โ€”Vladimir Nabokov
