Mad Mind

Famous quotes containing the words mad and/or mind:

    The planet’s survival has become so uncertain that any effort, any thought that presupposes an assured future amounts to a mad gamble.
    Elias Canetti (b. 1905)

    If love closes, the self contracts and hardens: the mind having nothing else to occupy its attention and give it that change and renewal it requires, busies itself more and more with self-feeling, which takes on narrow and disgusting forms, like avarice, arrogance and fatuity.
    Charles Horton Cooley (1864–1929)
