Miguel de Unamuno`s Quotes you should know before you get old

Miguel de Unamuno was a very famous Basque philosopher and writer. He wrote novels, poems and plays and served as rector of the University of Salamanca for many years. He lived in a controversial political period in Spain’s history and was exiled and put under house arrest for speaking out. Unamuno was born on Sept. 29, 1864, in the port city of Bilbao. Unamuno’s father, Felix, a baker, died when he was six, and his mother, Salomé Jugo, provided her children with a deeply Catholic upbringing, according to Poets.org. As a child, he studied in Bilbao at the Colegio de San Nicolas and the Instituto Vizcaíno, said the website Kirjusto. Unamuno at one time wished to become a priest, but his love for a childhood sweetheart, Concepción Lizárraga, kept him from the priesthood, reported Poets.org.
