From R.H. Blyth:
On Don Quixote:
“The object of a Knight Errant … is not to judge men, not to think of their goodness or badness, but only of their misfortunes … this applies to all men and women equally; old and young, rich and poor, good and bad … His attitude to other people is that of the sane man to madmen. To him food, money, clothes, are nothing.”
