Don Quixote teaches us that life is to be challenged. That passion and discipline of a determined soul are a foundational element of being a leader. Quixote does not accept current reality. He forces his creative imagery, his commitment, and his happiness on it.
to live the honorable life of a knight by defending principles of selflessness, honor and chivalry, all the while proving his love to the beloved Dulcinea, a fair lady in a far-off town through the woods upon whom Quixote is affixed, despite having never met her face-to-face

The third longest book I've read, not counting the Bible, and just...no. No. NO.

Don Quixote Of La Mancha
I know this is a classic and parts of it, I thought, were very funny. Don Quixote and Sancho Panza sometimes bickered like the proverbial old married couple. And the antics they became mixed up in and the trouble they found themselves in were quite humorous. The book was just SOOOO long and large chunks of it were really boring. Did it have to be that long?
