“Society is what decides who's sane and who isn't, so you got to measure up.”
― Ken Kesey, One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest

“Sometimes you have to go a little crazy before you can find sanity. I think I'm close.”
― Tawny Lara

“There is nothing sane, merciful, heroic, devout, redemptive, wise, holy, loving, peaceful, joyous, righteous, gracious, remotely spiritual, or worthy of praise where mass murder is concerned. We have been in this world long enough to know that by now and to understand that nonviolent conflict resolution informed by mutual compassion is the far better option.”
― Aberjhani, Splendid Literarium: A Treasury of Stories, Aphorisms, Poems, and Essays

“Sanity is the one unbelievable bore. One must be mad, slightly twisted - then one sees life from a new and entrancing angle.”
― Agatha Christie, Murder Is Easy

“If I can only see him in madness, is it worth trying to hold onto sanity?”
― Beth Revis, The Body Electric

“...sanity involves a certain measure of impersonation, not simply for the benefit of husband and servants but for the sake, first and foremost, of one's own convictions.”
― Michael Cunningham, The Hours

“I know there is a thin silver line between the sane and the insane, and even in that realm of madness, there are degrees of reason, fluttering moments of clarity and truth. Maybe the world can't handle the their truth. Maybe we are too weak. Maybe, like Sloth used to say, "It's the blind who see the most.”
― Julie Cantrell, Into the Free

“Music is my therapy and my straitjacket. Music keeps me sane and keeps my mind on something. It's fragile up there.”
― Will.i.am

“My feeling is that sanity is actually a pretence, a way we learn to behave. We keep this pretence up because we don't want to be rejected by other people—and being classified insane is to be shut out of the group in a very complete way.”
― Keith Johnstone, Impro: Improvisation and the Theatre

“Later than usual one summer morning in 1984, Zoyd Wheeler drifted awake in sunlight through a creeping fig that hung in the window, with a squadron of blue jays stomping around on the roof. In his dreams these had been carrier pigeons from someplace far across the ocean, landing and taking off again one by one, each bearing a message for him, but none of whom, light pulsing in the wings, he could ever quite get to in time. He understood it to be another deep nudge from forces unseen, almost surely connected with the letter that had come along with his latest mental-disability check, reminding him that unless he did something publicly crazy before a date now less than a week away, he would no longer qualify for benefits. He groaned out of bed. Somewhere down the hill hammers and saws were busy and country music was playing out of somebody's truck radio. Zoyd was out of smokes.”
― Thomas Pynchon, Vineland

“Anyway, these ideas or feelings or ramblings had their satisfactions. They turned the pain of others into memories of one’s own. They turned pain, which is natural, enduring, and eternally triumphant, into personal memory, which is human, brief, and eternally elusive. They turned a brutal story of injustice and abuse, an incoherent howl with no beginning or end, into a neatly structured story in which suicide was always held out as a possibility. They turned flight into freedom, even if freedom meant no more than the perpetuation of flight. They turned chaos into order, even if it was at the cost of what is commonly known as sanity.”
― Roberto Bolaño, 2666

“All stories are love stories, and there are numerous kinds of love, from the love of a mother holding her child for the first time to the love of blood that drives a psychopath, so I will always write about love, but not necessarily romance. Let the saner people do that.”
― Alcatraz Dey

“Madness is like an alternative residence. When sanity chases you out of home, take shelter in madness.”
― Munia Khan

“The worrying thing is that he was well aware of his slide, but didn't seem to want â€� or be able â€� to do anything to help it.”
― Rob Jovanovic

“While psychiatry is concerned with the question of why some people become insane, the real question is why most people do not become insane.”
― Erich Fromm, Zen Buddhism and Psychoanalysis

“Sanity mustn't guide life, Life is to drive all sanity.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Amor Apocalypse: Canım Sana Ä°htiyacım

“We are the road that winds down a sound mind, then slips into the sea.”
― Anthony Liccione

“He wondered if sanity had completely forsaken him in a land where nightmares and reality existed side-by-side.”
― Kevin Purdy

“Sanity is poison on the fabric of love,
The sanity that world peddles is but coldness.
Such sanity has no place in civilization,
It belongs in museum next to the bones of a t-rex.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Amor Apocalypse: Canım Sana Ä°htiyacım
