* TorchTheFranchiseAndRun: As noted above, Cervantes was dismayed to see other writers producing unauthorized Don Quixote stories of their own, and wrote Part Two [[spoiler: which finishes with Don Quixote regaining his sanity right before dying]] to give the character a definite ending. Ironically, the character's popularity has produced countless works featuring the character out of Cervantes' canonical story, the most famous of them being likely Creator/AlanMoore's ''ComicBook/TheLeagueOfExtraordinaryGentlemen''.

In its stock phrase version, it's used to say that an attack from one's enemies over a recently taken action is a sign that you are doing the right thing. There is an even more insulting version, ''"Ladran, señal que son perros"'' ("They bark, sign they are dogs"). It appears that the phrase became popular due to the famous poet Creator/RubenDario, who frequently used it to shut his critics regarding his origins.

** ''"A donde fueres, haz lo que vieres"'' ("Wherever you go, do as you see") and its multiple variations. A lot of people think this idiom comes from the book, or rather that it's a variation of the quote "Cuando a Roma fueres, haz como vieres" ("When you go to Rome, do as you see"). However, although the quote does appear in the book, it's origin is actually from the IV century, and it was first uttered in Latin by the bishop [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ambrose Ambrose of Milan]].

* TorchTheFranchiseAndRun: As noted above, Cervantes was dismayed to see other writers producing unauthorized Don Quixote stories of their own, and wrote Part Two [[spoiler:which finishes with Don Quixote regaining his sanity right before dying]] to give the character a definite ending.

** ''"Con la Iglesia hemos topado"'' ("We stumbled upon the Church") is a popular misquote of ''Con la iglesia hemos dado, Sancho'' ("We ''found'' the church, Sancho" - small letter, as they are talking of a physical building) from Part II, Chapter IX. [[MemeticMutation The stock phrase version]] is used in Spain to express annoyance at the meddling or lobbying of the Catholic Church (the institution) in a political matter.
** ''"Ladran, luego cabalgamos"'' ("They bark, therefore we ride") or ''"Ladran, Sancho, señal que cabalgamos"'' ("They bark, Sancho, sign that we ride") is also atributed to the book but it actually comes from [[Creator/JohannWolfgangVonGoethe Goethe's]] 1808 poem ''Kläffer'' ("Barker"; obviously, without the interjection of "Sancho": But their strident barking / is only a sign that we ride). In its stock phrase version, it's used to say that an attack from one's enemies over a recently taken action is a sign that you are doing the right thing. There is an even more insulting version, ''"Ladran, señal que son perros"'' ("They bark, sign they are dogs").
