它的掃描雖然 有點問題 不過很方便我們用諸如"Goethe"等字眼查索

Goethe has a well-known saying, which offends many people : It 
is only knaves who are modest ! Nur die Lumpen 
sind bescheiden! but it has its prototype in Cervantes, 
who includes in his Journey up Parnassus certain 
rules of conduct for poets, and amongst them the 
following : Everyone whose verse shows him to be a 
poet should have a high opinion of himself, relying on 
the proverb that he is a knave who thinks himself one. 
And Shakespeare, in many of his Sonnets, which 
gave him the only opportunity he had of speaking of 
himself, declares, with a confidence equal to his in 
genuousness, that what be writes is immortal.
