“Everybody's a mad scientist, and life is their lab. We're all trying to experiment to find a way to live, to solve problems, to fend off madness and chaos.”

“so who's more adult- somebody who works like mad to avoid a problem or somebody who works like mad to solve it?”

“We're all mad, the whole damned race. We're wrapped in illusions, delusions, confusions about the penetrability of partitions, we're all mad and in solitary confinement.”

“If we're mad, we're mad in large numbers, at least larger than yours.”

“We're making a mountain out of a mole hill. We're creating laws. We're trying to deal with this. Deal with the obvious: We do not seem as a nation to be able to solve this problem the way we've been approaching it.”

“There are some things which it is madness not to try to know but which it is almost as much madness to try to know.”

“Life is problems. Living is solving problems.”

“All living things contain a measure of madness that moves them in strange, sometimes inexplicable ways.”

“Oh, you can't help that,' said the cat. 'We're all mad here.”

“All living things contain a measure of madness that moves them in strange, sometimes inexplicable ways. This madness can be saving; it is part and parcel of the ability to adapt. Without it, no species would survive.”
