The ass will carry his load, but not a double load; ride not a free horse to death.
Miguel de Cervantes
Before the ferry leaves a horse and wagon comes aboard, a brokendown springwagon loaded with flowers, driven by a little brown man with high cheekbones. Jimmy Herf walks around it; behind the drooping horse with haunches like a hatrack the little warped wagon is unexpectedly merry, stacked with pots of scarlet and pink geraniums, carnations, alyssum, forced roses, blue lobelia. A rich smell of maytime earth comes from it, of wet flowerpots and greenhouses. The driver sits hunched with his hat over his eyes. Jimmy has an impulse to ask him where he is going with all of those flowers, but he stifles it.
John Dos Passos
Because a man is born in a stable that does not make him a horse.
1st Duke of Wellington
Variants: If a man be born in a stable, that does not make him a horse.
1st Duke of Wellington
No, he is not an Irishman. He was born in Ireland; but being born in a stable does not make a man a horse.
1st Duke of Wellington
