Insanity in individuals is something rare - but in groups, parties, nations and epochs, it is the rule.

Madness is rare in individuals - but in groups, parties, nations, and ages it is the rule.

I would say any behavior that is not the status quo is interpreted as insanity, when, in fact, it might actually be enlightenment. Insanity is sorta in the eye of the beholder.

I am told that the clinical definition of insanity is the tendency to do the same thing over and over again and expect different results.

There's a big difference between sanity and insanity.

For me, insanity is super sanity. The normal is psychotic. Normal means lack of imagination, lack of creativity.

Insane people are always sure that they are fine. It is only the sane people who are willing to admit that they are crazy.

Insanity - a perfectly rational adjustment to an insane world.

If, as the popular saying goes, the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result, the people who run our public schools fit that description.
