In my perspective, English is a language that practically insists upon insanity. The categories and distinctions are both bizarre and impossibly unrelated to context, purpose and perspective in relation. Yet, with terrible irony, it occasionally gets something right, and ‘madness’ is an example.

For here we have a term that indicates the consistent conceptual invention and habitation of a world that does not and cannot exist, and, secondarily, ‘an incipient anger at the results of this activity’.

Hilarious, no?
