Schizophrenia is hearing voices, not doing voices.
Excessive sorrow laughs. Excessive joy weeps.
Many writers were picked on as children. Why? Because they were weird from the get-go. They were often to be found at the back of the class smelling erasers, or talking to caterpillars, or walking down the street with an encyclopedia balanced on their head.

I think Madonna might have a multiple personality.
Eccentricity has never been discouraged in our family.
