Explanation:

Don Quixote is a character created by author Miguel de Cervantes. He is a lovely, chivalrous man who lives the illusion of being a knight. Don Quixote has a sense of earnest purpose, trying to improve the world without realizing his own madness. Everything is different to his eyes - windmills are giants with whom he fights, for instance. His idealistic, romanticized perspective is quite funny to watch, his battles having a comedic nature to them. His using a a branch from an oak tree as a sword, for example, is quite childish. No one can watch (or read, for that matter) a battle in which cushions and branches are used seriously. It's just like watching children playing around.
