Don Quixote by miguel de cervantes

People may like Don Quixote because he insists on his beliefs and pursues freedom, and people may dislike him because he is addicted to fantasy and is out of reality. Don Quixote reminds me of a popular phrase on Chinese social media in previous years, “Dream is necessary, just in case it was realized.” said by a Chinese host. Let’s not think about whether the dream can be realized or not. The premise that dreams can be realized or not is that you have a dream. I feel that no matter what your dreams are, it is better to have dreams than to have no dream, and those people who have dreams live happily. I found this when I saw Don Quixote invite his neighbor Sancho Panza to become his squire, and Sancho agreed to the offer in the video.(7:50—11:26) 

Meanwhile Don Quixote worked upon a farm labourer, a neighbour of his, an honest man (if indeed that title can be given to him who is poor), but with very little wit in his pate. In a word, he so talked him over, and with such persuasions and promises, that the poor clown made up his mind to sally forth with him and serve him as esquire. Don Quixote, among other things, told him he ought to be ready to go with him gladly, because any moment an adventure might occur that might win an island in the twinkling of an eye and leave him governor of it. On these and the like promises Sancho Panza (for so the labourer was called) left wife and children, and engaged himself as esquire to his neighbour.

(Part I  Chapter VII)

Don Quixote and Sancho Panza have smiles on their faces when they are discussing their adventures. They are very excited because they are discussing what they like. The same reason, Why do many modern people live unhappy? Because they are doing what they don’t like to do. They go to college just for the diploma. They go to work on time just for the money. Many people have no dream and no meaning to live. This is why I said that there are dreams better than no dreams.
