Such objectivity! I mean, parts of it *are* why he was overthrown, and yet.
"I am his Dulcinea. He has never seen me, and yet he fell in love with me like Don Quichotte."
HAHAHA, that's the best analogy ever. I had actually used it in the WIP I was working on a couple weeks ago, but I have to admit, it fits (P)Russian Pete, who's never met Fritz, better than it fits any of Fritz's actual boyfriends (in this case, Suhm).
Consequently, he assumed one wronged the later if one claimed that he profered books to the pipe, and especially if one said that he loved to make verses. Whereas the Grand Duchess, like so many othres, couldn't stand the smell of tobacco smoke, and she was an avid reader; this was her husband's main complaint about her.

If true, this is hilarious. Don Quixote indeed.
