Mad

Famous quotes containing the word mad:

    What if, both mad and blinded in their rage,
    Our foes should fling us down their mortal gage,
    And with a hostile step profane our sod!
    We shall not shrink, my brothers, but go forth
    Henry Timrod (1828–1867)

    These fragments I have shored against my ruins
    Why then Ile fit you. Hieronymo’s mad againe.
    Datta. Dayadhvam. Damyata.
    Shantih shantih shantih
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    Our father presents an optional set of rhythms and responses for us to connect to. As a second home base, he makes it safer to roam. With him as an ally—a love—it is safer, too, to show that we’re mad when we’re mad at our mother. We can hate and not be abandoned, hate and still love.
    Judith Viorst (20th century)
