Madness, far from being an anomaly, is the normal human condition.

To be unaware of it, if it is not significant, means to be normal.

To be unaware of it, if it is significant, means to be mad.

To be aware of it, if it is minor, means to be disillusioned.

To be aware of it, if it is significant, means to be geniuses.
