Insane

Famous quotes containing the word insane:

    Perhaps the mission of those who love mankind is to make people laugh at the truth, to make truth laugh, because the only truth lies in learning to free ourselves from insane passion for the truth.
    Umberto Eco (b. 1932)

    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)

    Well, I suppose we’ve got to have architects, too. But if I wanted to build a nice, cozy, unpretentious insane asylum, he’d be the man for it.
    Peter Ruric, and Edgar G. Ulmer. Edgar G. Ulmer. Peter Alison (David Manners)
