Don Quixote becomes so enamored with tales of chivalry, he lives the life of a knight. Other people think he’s crazy. But is he?

If you want to be a writer, consume tons of writing and then write.

If you want to be a musician, consume tons of music and then play.

If you want to be anything, consume everything you can related to it and then become it.

I wonder if Cervantes is challenging the reader to check their bias and prejudice at the door and see Quixote as someone living out a passion. In many ways, I wish I could be more like the knight errant.
