I used to use that phrase in my emails. I've always had a fascination with Don Quixote. So now I get to enjoy an XKCD comic that features my hero.

"…I contend that we are both atheists. I just believe in one fewer god than
you do. When you understand why you dismiss all the other possible gods,
you will understand why I dismiss yours." - Stephen F. Roberts

Very much into Don Quixote. I also like Lawrence Ferlinghetti's riff on that phrase where the hero is "tilting at ginmills."
