Mad

Famous quotes containing the word mad:

“I am sure my bones would not rest in an English grave, or my clay mix with the earth of that country.

I would not even feed her worms if I could help it.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)

Some that are mad if they behold a cat,
And others when the bagpipe sings i’th’ nose
Cannot contain their urine.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“Everybody’s a mad scientist, and life is their lab. We’re all trying to experiment to find a way to live, to solve problems, to fend off madness and chaos.”
