This is our function, to be character types, to embody recurring themes that people can use to comfort themselves, justify themselves and so on. We’re here to accommodate.

From flattery, cards, and dice, and din:

And ev’ry health which I begin
Converts dull port to bright champagne;
Such Freedom crowns it, at an inn.”
