“between love and madness lies obsession!”
“Obsession is the wellspring of genius and madness.”
“His affection for his car was a fine debatable line between uncomfortable obsession and a deep love.”
“No rest without love, no sleep without dreams of love- be mad or chill obsessed with angels or machines, the final wish is love -cannot be bitter, cannot deny,cannot withhold if denied: the weight is too heavy”
“If I said I was madly in love with you you'd know I was lying.”
“sometimes the personalities at the helm of the madness industry are, with their drives and obsessions, as mad in their own way as those they study. And that relatively ordinary people are, more and more, defined by their maddest edges.”
