“A fire broke out backstage in a theater. The clown came out to warn the public; they thought it was a joke and applauded.
He repeated it; the acclaim was even greater.
I think that's just how the world will come to an end: to general applause from wits who believe it's a joke.”
- Søren Kierkegaard, Either/Or, Part I
