Alonso Quixano's Death

From Don Quixote by Miguel de Cervantes
On his deathbed Quixote renounces the books of chivalry, reclaims his name Alonso Quixano the Good, and dies sane, with Sancho weeping and begging him to live on as a knight.
Part 2, Chapter 74

'Let us go gently, gentlemen... in last year's nests, there are no birds this year. I was mad, but I am sane now.' One of literature's most poignant deaths.
