"Madness is to think of too many..." - Quote by Voltaire

“History never repeats itself. Man always does.”

“A good imitation is the most perfect originality”

“Society therefore is an ancient as the world.”

“I am madness maddened when it comes to books, writers, and the great granary silos where their wits are stored.”

“He who without the Muse's madness in his soul comes knocking at the door of poesy and thinks that art will make him anything fit to be called a poet, finds that the poetry which he indites in his sober senses is beaten hollow by the poetry of madmen.”

“You’ve got to be crazy! It’s too late to be sane, too late. You’ve got to go full tilt bozo... ‘Cause you’re only given a little spark of madness... and if you lose that, you’re nothing”

“I never read a novel, they have so little real life and thought in them.”

“The essentials of being a person of my type lies precisely in what they think and how they think, not in what they do. Your thoughts shape you.”

“Whatever sentence will bear to be read twice, we may be sure was thought twice.”
