“Tilting at Windmills”

  • July 22, 2011, 9:47am

'tilting" in this context means "jousting" i.e. "fighting with a lance". Don Quixote sees (delusionally) the windmills as giants , so 'tilting at windmills" means fighting imaginary enemies. Over time it has aquired the additional meaning of fighting futile idealistic battles.
