Or Lack Thereof

After five years studying psychology and counseling, I have come to one conclusion: no one is "sane!" The best thing you can do is have a sense of humor about it. Here are some quotes to help show w
hat I mean:

Insanity: Doing the same thing over and over and respecting different results. -Albert Einstein

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

I don't really trust a sane person. -Lyle Alzado

I don't suffer from insanity. I enjoy every minute of it. ~Author Unknown

Sanity is very rare: every man almost, and every woman, has a dash of madness. ~Ralph Waldo Emerson

The statistics on sanity are that one out of every four Americans is suffering from some form of mental illness. Think of your three best friends. If they're okay, then it's you. -Rita Mae Brown

I hate to advocate drugs, alcohol, violence or insanity to anyone, but they've always worked for me. -Hunter S. Thompson

It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society. -Krishnamurti

Sanity and happiness are an impossible combination. -Mark Twain

No one can drive us crazy unless we give them the keys. -Doug Horton

We're all crazy and the only difference between the patients and the therapists are that the therapists haven't been caught yet. -Max Walker

only someone who spends too much time around shrinks would come to the conclusion that nobody is sane :). if "nobody is sane" does the word "sane" even represent a meaningful concept? nobody i know is spodoffeperous but you don't see me getting all bloggy about it.

I love your article. I haven't any degree in Phsychology but I do have 59 years of life experience. The older I get, the more I realize that we all have issues. Some issues are just moe obvious with them. Thanks for the smiles.

I think the first one is so true. Having been in a helping profession all my adult life, I also agree with the last one!
