Who is “Don Quixote”? Are you “Don Quixote”? Am I? Do we still need him or did his ideals, dreams and hopes perish centuries ago?

 

 “Don Quixote” is the brave, if slightly naive guide who helps us immerse ourselves in a world of adventure, dreams and flight above the gray everyday life. A world of battles with huge giants, evil sorcerers, thunderbolts of envy, rivers of gluttony. “Don Quixote” is a journey in search of opportunities to accomplish feats and reach the most precious treasure of this world – freedom, because “Freedom, Sancho, is at the tip of the spear!”

 

“Don’t give up, Sancho! Come with me, let us feed our souls with freedom…Come, my friend! Come to me! And be the governor of spirituality.”
