Quixotic...
Yes... it looks a lot like Don Quixote... Therefore an adjective related to the famous Spanish character...
I
can do it. It will be tough, but I must do it, it is in me, the world
is counting on me, I must not fail, I will prevail, and you have to
understand, it is of the most importance that you do, you have to
understand, it is for the greater good of all of us striving for a
perfect world in which student centered learning really touch and move
students, in which teachers actually become one of the numerous tools
students can use in order to push back the limits of their oh so
(un)limited minds. We must achieve this as a whole. Students, you fellow
teachers, and me your humble servant. Oh you true light, oh unbearable
truth, enlighten us all... I can hear your doubts from here, I see them
raising high like giants... Doubts must be crushed... Those mighty
doubtful giants must perish, I must do it, we can do it... Charge!!!
Behind those evil giants lies the truth! With me oh Sanchos of this
world! With me, victory is at hand! With me! Sancho! Here is my pledge:
the whole world will know the definition of quixotic!
and it will be my noble deed, my gift to the greatest mistress of all, my Dulcinée, Education.
