In a mad world, only the mad are sane.

Summary

This quote by Japanese author Akira Kurosawa suggests that in a chaotic and senseless world, those who are considered insane might actually be the ones who hold a deeper understanding of life. It implies that being "sane" in such a world means conforming to its madness and accepting its absurdities. It challenges the conventional norms and questions the concept of sanity itself, provoking contemplation on the complexities of human perception and the hidden wisdom that can be found in unconventional thinking.
