Quotes:
- Insanity is relative. It depends on who has who locked in what cage.
-If you hide your ignorance, no one will hit you, and you'll never learn.
-There is more than one way to burn a book. And the world is full of people running about with lit matches.
-For it is a mad world and it will get madder if we allow the minorities, be they dwarf or giant, orangutan or dolphin, nuclear-head or water-conversationalist, pro-computerologist or Neo-Luddite, simpleton or sage, to interfere with aesthetics. The real world is the playing ground for each and every group, to make or unmake laws.
-People are talking about the Internet as a creative tool for writers. I say, "B.S. Stay away from that. Stop talking to people around the world and get your work done."
-Computers are toys, and men like to mess around with smart dumb things. They feel creative

Charles Mackay (March 27 1814 – December 24 1889) was a Scottish poet, journalist, and song writer.
Quotes:
•The king can drink the best of wine —
So can I;
And has enough when he would dine —
So have I;
And can not order rain or shine —
Nor can I.
Then where’s the difference — let me see —
Betwixt my lord the king and me?
{"Differences" in The Collected Songs of Charles Mackay (1859)}.
• Men, it has been well said, think in herds; it will be seen that they go mad in herds, while they only recover their senses slowly, and one by one.
