[The philosopher] embarks on the task … in his own fashion…. The fashion of a philosopher. Everyone knows how his dance begins…. His first faint step is a question…. [He is] a mind afflicted with a mania for interrogation…. He brings in his whys and hows, the customary instruments of elucidation, which are the apparatus of his own art …Paul Valéry (1964a:202, 204)
