So long as man is protected by madness - he functions - and flourishes.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
We derive our vitality from our store of madness.
Madness need not be all breakdown. It may also be break-through. It is potential liberation and renewal as well as enslavement and existential death.
There is a method in man's wickedness; it grows up by degrees.
Man does find in Nature deliverance from himself, oblivion of his past, with peace and purity!
I hold that while man exists, it is his duty to improve not only his own condition, but to assist in ameliorating mankind.
No man is sane who does not know how to be insane on proper occasions.
In a completely sane world, madness is the only freedom.
Nowhere more truly than in his mental capacities is man a part of nature.
Man is fully responsible for his nature and his choices.
For evil to flourish, it only requires good men to do nothing.
