"The moment their arms spun freely in our air, they were doomed -- for Man has earned his right to hold this planet against all comers, by virtue of occasionally producing someone totally batshit insane"

Those who are familiar with Don Quixote de la Mancha would relate to this cartoon strip :)
Brings back my childhood memories. Its so refreshing. I was around eight when I first (and only time) read Don Quixote de la Mancha, by Cervantes.
The book and that whimsical character Don Quixote made me laugh like crazy.
For those who can't make sense out of those cartoon, there is an incident in that book where Don Quixote mistakes the windmills to be knights and charges at them only to bang against the knight (windmill) and they fall apart..thats he and his horse..or was it a donkey..don't remember..
Its a must read book..pick it up at leisure time.. The original piece is in Spanish..so there are different translations available..its good to review the translated piece before you buy one.
