“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.” ThinkingArtSoulDoorsPoetFitMadnessSensesMuseBeatenSoberHollowMadmenKnocking Author:Plato
“I built a leprechaun trap that was made to look like a tiny hotel. There was a ramp where the leprechaun could walk into the hotel, see a Lego pot of gold on the other side, try to reach it, fall through a trap door, go through a tube, wind up in a biscuit tin, and be trapped. My mom, encouraging my madness, told me that the leprechaun might escape and that I needed a shot glass of whiskey down there to keep him occupied while he was in there.” TryingLooksMadeMightFallSidesWalksDoorsWindMomNeededShotsBuiltGoldMadnessGlassesMy MomTinyHotelPotTrappedTrapsWhiskeyTubesTinBiscuitsRampLeprechaunLegosPot Of GoldShot Glass Author:Alex Hirsch
“There is also a third kind of madness, which is possession by the Muses, enters into a delicate and virgin soul, and there inspiring frenzy, awakens lyric... But he, who, not being inspired and having no touch of madness in his soul, comes to the door and thinks he will get into the temple by the help of art - he, I say, and his poetry are not admitted; the sane man is nowhere at all when he enters into rivalry with the madman.” ThinkingMenKindArtSoulHelpingDoorsThirdsMadnessInspiredPossessionTemplesDelicateSaneMuseVirginsMadmenRivalryFrenzy Author:Plato
