Insane

Famous quotes containing the word insane:

“Let him be great, and love shall follow him. Nothing is more deeply punished than the neglect of the affinities by which alone society should be formed, and the insane levity of choosing associates by others’ eyes.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

“we do not explain my husband’s insane abuse
and we do not say why your wild-haired wife has fled
or that my father opened like a walnut and then was dead.
Your palms fold over me like knees. Love is the only use.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
