Quote by Miguel de Cervantes

Miguel de Cervantes' The History of the Ingenious Gentleman, Don Quixote of La Mancha is a seminal work of Western literature. The novel follows the misadventures of Don Quixote, a man who becomes obsessed with the ideals of chivalry and decides to become a knight-errant. His companion, Sancho Panza, serves as a foil to Quixote's idealistic pursuits, often providing a more realistic perspective. The novel satirizes the chivalric romances of the time and explores themes of identity, reality, and the human condition. more
