Famous quotes containing the word mad:

    I fear animals regard man as a creature of their own kind which has in a highly dangerous fashion lost its healthy animal reason—as the mad animal, as the laughing animal, as the weeping animal, as the unhappy animal.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    I am sure my bones would not rest in an English grave, or my clay mix with the earth of that country. I believe the thought would drive me mad on my death-bed could I suppose that any of my friends would be base enough to convey my carcass back to her soil. I would not even feed her worms if I could help it.
    George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)

    Tjaden: How do they start a war?
    Albert: Well, one country offends another.
    Tjaden: How could one country offend another? You mean there’s a mountain over in Germany gets mad at a field in France?
    Maxwell Anderson (1888–1959)
