“I became insane, with long intervals of horrible sanity.”
― Edgar Allan Poe

“No new horror can be more terrible than the daily torture of the commonplace.”
― H. P. Lovecraft, Necronomicon: The Best Weird Tales

“But that's the glory of foreign travel, as far as I am concerned. I don't want to know what people are talking about. I can't think of anything that excites a greater sense of childlike wonder than to be in a country where you are ignorant of almost everything. Suddenly you are five years old again. You can't read anything, you have only the most rudimentary sense of how things work, you can't even reliably cross a street without endangering your life. Your whole existence becomes a series of interesting guesses.”
― Bill Bryson, Neither Here nor There: Travels in Europe

“We're all mad here.”
― Lewis Carroll, Alice in Wonderland
