I don't know. Do you think to yourself, "In this situation I'll play the
rogue and argue for the value of irrationality, but in the next moment the
guise of the scholar will best make my point. I'll wear either mask as I
see fit for I am aware that this is a puppet show and the best any of us
can hope to do is butt up against anothers mask."?
