"... a man with a definite belief always appears bizarre, because he does not change with the world; he has climbed into a fixed star, and the earth whizzes below him like a zoetrope. Millions of mild black-coated men call themselves sane and sensible merely because they always catch the fashionable insanity, because they are hurried into madness after madness by the maelstrom of the world."
"Truth, of course, must of necessity be stranger than fiction, for we have made fiction to suit ourselves."
Quotes from G.K. Chesterton: Heretics, chapter 4
