No, we’re open to that, too. Only by combining gravity and levity can one become fully human - or so says Machiavelli, anyway, author of the Prince, Discourses on Livy, and Mandragola (a delightfully bawdy and deeply philosophical play, almost unknown these days).

Those who take their earnestness in earnest//
and their fun as simply fun//
merely show how little//
they know of either one.

Piet Hein, Grooks.
