I, Sancho, well I see that I am not beautiful, but I also know that I am not a dysform; And it is basty a man of good not to be a monster to be well loved, as you have the skills of the soul that I have told you.
In "Don Quixote" by Miguel de Cervantes, the character Sancho expresses a humble introspection about his appearance. He acknowledges that he may not be conventionally attractive, yet he rejects the notion of being a monster. This self-awareness reflects a deeper understanding of human value beyond physical looks.
Sancho's statement highlights the importance of inner qualities and virtues. It suggests that a person's worth is not solely based on external beauty but is significantly influenced by their character and soul. Through this insight, Cervantes conveys a timeless message about the significance of kindness and integrity in fostering meaningful relationships.
