Don Quixote de La Mancha

      I am currently reading Cervantes' Don Quixote. Don Quixote wants to be a knight and wear armor like that above. In his travels with Sancho Panza (the smarter of the two) his adventures allow him to meet a variety of characters. This is one of the very first novels and is, in many ways, satire about the state of Spain. However, as I read it, it is very much to the point of our present day situation. I hope that Mr. Pence can play Panza well.
