The greatest height of heroism to which an individual, like a people, can attain is to know how to face ridicule; better still, to know how to make oneself ridiculous and not to shrink from the ridicule.[El más alto heroísmo para un individuo, como para un pueblo, es saber afrontar el ridículo; es, mejor aún, saber ponerse en ridículo y no acobardarse en él.]
