“while there is nothing wrong with human emotions as such, they can interfere with higher forms of cognitive processes. When”
Josef Steiff, Sherlock Holmes and Philosophy: The Footprints of a Gigantic Mind

“In one classic carnival celebration called the “feast of fools,” a fool is elected king. The real king (old authority and truth) is brought down—metaphorically killed—so that the king of fools (a new authority, a new truth) can emerge. When the fool’s reign is over at carnival’s end, his kingly disguise is removed and he retakes his place as a clown. But the fool doesn’t “die” in vain—he has led the hierarchy and the folk through metamorphosis. Dying brings change and rebirth.”
Josef Steiff, Sherlock Holmes and Philosophy: The Footprints of a Gigantic Mind
