Animals, like us, have rich and spacious interiors. They contain inner landscapes: desert places and lonely canyons, cliffs of madness and rivers or serene awareness that merge in tranquil seas.
Gary A. Kowalski
Image
In the madness, you have to find calm.
Lupita Nyong'o

I thought of Chatterton, the marvellous boy, The sleepless soul that perished in his pride Of him who walked in glory and in joy, Following his plough, along the mountain-side. By our own spirits we are deified We Poets in our youth begin in gladness, But thereof come in the end despondency and madness.
William Wordsworth
Image
Music is the only thing in the world that can block out madness, and can be consumed in the sadness, for it helps the soul survive even if only for a short time.

Fred Savage

She was as one who, in madness, was resolute to throw herself from a precipice, but to whom some remnant of sanity remained which forced her to seek those who would save her from herself.
Anthony Trollope
Image
Somebody had tipped the American continent like a pinball machine and all the goofballs had come rolling to LA in the southwest corner. I cried for all of us. There was no end to the American sadness and the American madness. Someday we'll all start laughing and roll on the ground when we realize how funny it's been.
Jack Kerouac
Image
At the edge of madness you howl diamonds and pearls.
Aberjhani

Edward Young
Image
We want a few mad people now. See where the sane ones have landed us!
George Bernard Shaw

While I am rehearsing a play, I try to read nothing that might distract my concentration from the work in progress.
Mercedes McCambridge
Image
Why will God's creatures sin against his throne? Can there be such madness in beings gifted with reason's light?
Charles Grandison Finney
Image
Or a White Englishman would rather smash a White Frenchman than a Jew! Crazy!
Tom Metzger
Image
He was so tenacious he defied the distraction of women by refusing to have them in his presence, just as later in life he denied his blindness by calling for more and more candles.
Kit Williams
Image
The majority of Americans, the ones who never elected George W. Bush, are not fooled by his weapons of mass distraction.
Michael Moore
Image
Certainly, Gandhi is not inferior to Christ in goodness and sanctity, and he surpasses him in touching humility. Gandhi is the prophet of hope in this age of pessimism and disillusionment. He is a promise of sanity in the madness induced by our world's heedless drinking at the fount of war.
Sudhir Kakar
Image
The multiplication of individual sects should not fool us: the important point is that the whole of America is preoccupied with the sect as a moral institution, with its immediate demand for beatification, its material efficacity, its compulsion for justification, and doubtless also with its madness and frenzy.
Jean Baudrillard
Image
Nothing is so wretched or foolish as to anticipate misfortunes. What madness it is to be expecting evil before it comes.
Seneca the Younger
Image
Be careful, you are not in Wonderland. I've heard the strange madness long growing in your soul. But you are fortunate in your ignorance, in your isolation. You who have suffered, find where love hides. Give, share, lose—lest we die, unbloomed.
Austin Bunn
Image
The concept of genius as akin to madness has been carefully cultivated by the inferiority complex of the public.
Ezra Pound
Image
War. Gorgon spits the word. That is what they call it to give the illusion of honor and law. It is chaos. Madness and blood and the hunger to win. It has always been thus and shall always be so.
