* While it isn't strictly called for in the libretto of ''Theatre/{{Pagliacci}}'', it is a generally accepted tradition for Canio to collapse into tears at the end of ''Vesti la giubba''. The song is about him trying to convince himself to go on with a show where he plays a cuckold ''immediately after'' finding out he actually ''is'' a cuckold, and as it goes on, it becomes clear he just can't ''do'' it.

* In UsefulNotes/{{Christianity}}, Despair is one of the original SevenDeadlySins, being later replaced by the sin of Sloth. In Eastern Orthodox denominations, it is counted as the 8th Deadly Sin, but it is still present in Roman Catholic theology and others, simply considered to fall under the category of Sloth (or simply as a lesser sin). Despair is defined as the loss of faith or hope (ie. in goodness, in {{God}} etc.), and thus is more about giving into nihilism or cynicism (esp. as an excuse to stop being good or to ignore evil) rather than simply feeling sad or depressed about anything in particular; it is counted as Sloth because it is considered to be the sin of "giving up", and its corresponding [[SevenHeavenlyVirtues virtue]] is (respectively) Hope or [[{{Determinator}} Diligence]].
