YOU'RE NOT CRAZY, JUST SMART!!
From Proust:
'Everything great in the world comes from neurotics. They alone have founded our religions and composed our masterpieces. Never will the world know all it owes to them nor all they have suffered to enrich us. We enjoy lovely music, beautiful paintings, a thousand intellectual delicacies, but we have no idea of their cost, to those who inventeted them, in sleepless nights, tears, spasmodic laughter, rashes, asthma, epilepsies, and the fear of death, which is worse than all the rest.'
credit to mancunian. all credit to mancunian. :)

Ahem. Thank you. Though of course, most of the credit belongs to Proust, who gives lie to the idea that sitting around in bed all day is a waste of time....
