But  recall that, for Freud, the originator of the cigar quote, when it came
to the  subject of human motivations, a cigar was not a cigar in most
instances.   Hardly surprising that someone like Twain, ostensibly living
within at
least  two separate identities, could suggest, imply or intend two or more
coexisting, conflicting or contradictory motivations underlying a single
act.
