Day 4 (November 21) Part I, Chapter IV, Part 1

“It’s odd…how sharing a sense of doubt can bring men together perhaps even more than sharing a faith. The believer will fight another believer over a shade of difference; the doubter fights only with himself.”

So: the believer fights for his conviction, and the doubter fights for his clarity.

Sancho’s alternative history of the Marxist prodigal son is the evidence of his true genius: to not to take oneself too seriously.

“He remained almost in hailing distance of La Mancha, but his mind traveled very far.”

What a beautiful tribute from Father Quixote to Don Quixote, a madman hero.
