Insanity

I was reading The Bitchy Waiter and his blog entry called Albert Einstein ♥'s The Bitchy Waiter and he put up a quote i really enjoyed. "you know what insanity is? It's doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results." and it made me think, mostly about how that quote didn't make sense, then when i analyzed it i realized, there is a bit of truth in that. Because you don't see people doing the same thing over and over again just to watch themselves fail, saying this in the sense that achievement is the goal. So what dictates other forms of insanity?  "Madness is like the Emergency Exit.You can just step outside and close the Door on all those Bad Things that happened.You can lock Them all away Forever" - Alan Moore. I believe that this is the most common form of insanity. The reason i say this is because all it is expressing is running from you true emotions and there is a mask. I performed a poem earlier this year for a contest that followed this idea, Paul Laurence Dunbar We Ware The Mask.  But that poem was based off of black slavery and how they were hiding their true feelings from there owners, but we wont get into that. The last quote I want to regard by insanity is "You're only given a little spark of madness. You mustn't lose it." - Robin Williams.  I believe that this is the most realistic one I have seen because everybody has a problem, and tat problem is what makes us unique, if we lost that problem then there is no uniqueness.
