"[Shahrazad] tinha liquidado os livros, anais e lendas de reis precedentes, e as histórias, exemplos e casos de homens e coisas desaparecidas; De fato, foi dito que ela havia coletado mil livros de histórias relacionadas a raças antigas e governantes que partiram. Ela havia lido as obras dos poetas e os conhecia de coração; Ela havia estudado filosofia e as ciências, artes e realizações; E ela era agradável e educada, sábia e espirituosa, bem lida e bem criada."

--- Richard Francis Burton

Versão em inglês

[Shahrazad] had perused the books, annals and legends of preceding Kings, and the stories, examples and instances of by gone men and things; indeed it was said that she had collected a thousand books of histories relating to antique races and departed rulers. She had perused the works of the poets and knew them by heart; she had studied philosophy and the sciences, arts and accomplishments; and she was pleasant and polite, wise and witty, well read and well bred.
