"El sol es un ladrón, y con su gran atractivo seduce el vasto mar; la luna es un ladrona tenaz, cuyo pálido fuego lo arrebata del sol;
El mar es un ladrón cuyas olas obtiene de las lágrimas que a la fuerza hace derramar a la luna ... "
William Shakespeare ( de Timón de Atenas )

"The sun’s a thief, and with his great attraction,
robs the vast sea; the moon’s an arrant thief,
And her pale fire she snatches from the sun;
The sea’s a thief, whose liquid surge resolves
The moon into salt tears. . . "
William Shakespeare, Timon of Athens, Act 4, Scene 3
