[MD] Don Quixote?

[MarshaV]

dmb,

When I was thinking of Percival a few days ago, I was thinking 
of an ancient chinese saying, 'If the wrong man uses the right 
means, the right means work in the wrong way.'  

Have a nice day...

I mean, it's not exactly a subtle mistake to construe the wise fool as a "pure fool" or a "poor fool". In doing so, a very dynamic archetype of the hero becomes an entirely negative figure. He is Bugs Bunny, the Brujo at Zuni and Lance the surfer in Apocalypse Now. He's Bill Hicks and Alan Ginsberg. I especially like this description:
>> 
>> "The trickster is a very important archetype in the history of man. He is a god, yet he is not. He is the wise-fool. It is he, through his creations that destroy, points out the flaws in carefully constructed societies of man. He rebels against authority, pokes fun at the overly serious, creates convaluted schemes - that may or may not work - plays with the Laws of the Universe and is sometimes his own worst enemy. He exists to question, to cause us to question & not accept things blindly. He appears when a way of thinking becomes outmoded needs to be torn down built anew. He is the Destroyer of Worlds at the same time the savior of us all."

Don't you think it would be better FOR YOU? You don't want to ignore the facts of the matter just to spite me, do you? You'd only be hurting yourself, which would be foolish, no?
