There is nothing in life more powerful than this piece of fiction. It is still the final and the greatest expression of human thought, the most bitter irony that a human is capable of expressing; and if the world came to an end and people were asked somewhere there: ‘Well, did you understand anything about your life on earth and draw any conclusion from it?’ a person could silently hand over Don Quixote. ‘Here is my conclusion about life. Can you condemn me for it?

Ok Quiotefags, calm down. You're blowing things out of proportion here. You're going to turn /lit/ off to a good book with your shameless, excessive meming.

This is coming from a Spaniard.

have you guys tried Orlando Furioso yet? what a hoot. It's fun to think of Quixote reading this stuff and taking it seriously. Morgante by Pulci looks neat too.

Is Don Quixote good? Like it just seems like it would inevitably be massively boring to me.

One of the thing that surprised me about Quixote was it was extremely funny.

I remember wondering what the fuck was going on until the second part and Sancho Panza just blurting out his parables, and it all just clicked. it became one of the greatest books i had ever read when i realized that i wasn't supposed to take it all so damn seriously.
