“Conspiracists take this narcissism even further. It's not enough for them to be Socrates and Sherlock Holmes. They also have to be Jesus Christ, some kind of persecuted martyr, heroically fighting the forces of evil in the information war. It's like Don Quixote, that book we all pretend to have read about an aging noble who reads chivalric fantasy novels all day and deludes himself into thinking he's a knight.”

“Everyone knows Don Quijote for its humour and for how silly it is and what a loveable character it is but, and yes it is, it is very humorous, but after reading it I realised that it is so much more than just that. And I'm so glad I read it. It's my favourite piece of classical literature that I have ever read. [...] It's the longest book I've read but it is also the longest book I've ever enjoyed and honestly, I can't wait to reread it. I could go on more, but there is really no point. It is quite hard at some points. I would be lying if I said that it was the easiest read I ever had but it is 100% worth it! Check it out! Don Quijote 5 out of 5. Beautiful, so glad I read it!”
