Don Quixote was definitely a dreamer. He really got the best out of life. He lived by Shakespeare's quote, "The world is just a stage and people are merely players." But in the story he was the directing the play, which is what I believe made him a genius. He knew exactly what he was doing from the begining, even when people were truly convinced that he was really crazy. In the end he admits to what he did and proves that he fooled eveyone.
