I myself spent nine proverb

 I myself spent nine years in an insane asylum and I never had the obsession of suicide, but I know that each conversation with a psychiatrist, every morning at the time of his visit, made me want to hang myself, realizing that I would not be able to cut his throat.
  Antonin Artaud

 I had never, ever drunk beer in high school, and by the time I got to Tech we were having these parties out in the cotton fields and getting so drunk. I was the champion beer drinker; suddenly I was pouring it down my throat... Insane! Insane!

 I saw some of it, but I mostly spent some time with my family. It was the first time I've had to visit in two years.

 The whole country is one vast insane asylum and they're letting the worst patients run the place.

 This case is about a torture victim who fled to this country seeking asylum and who was locked up for years even though he kept winning his asylum case. The court's ruling strongly confirms that the government cannot lock up people for years indefinitely and without good reason.

 If an officer doesn't grant asylum, you have the right to take your case before an immigration judge. Asylum is a very compassionate exercise of the law, and many people have been saved through refuge and asylum.

 Our society is run by insane people for insane objectives. I think we're being run by maniacs for maniacal ends and I think I'm liable to be put away as insane for expressing that. That's what's insane about it.
  John Lennon

 Our passion in the case made a difference. I'm not sure if that's good in the long run. I don't like to think that the attorney you get stuck with determines the outcome in your asylum matter. But it made a difference in this case . . . that we had spent hours and hours with these brothers and believed them.

 ORTHOGRAPHY, n. The science of spelling by the eye instead of the ear. Advocated with more heat than light by the outmates of every asylum for the insane. They have had to concede a few things since the time of Chaucer, but are none the less hot in defence of those to be conceded hereafter.

A spelling reformer indicted For fudge was before the court cicted. The judge said: "Enough -- His candle we'll snough, And his sepulchre shall not be whicted."
  Ambrose Bierce

 This is a very friendly town. Every visit, every conversation I've had since applying for the position has made me feel like this is absolutely the right decision.

 He's back where he belongs. He spent some time on the couch with the psychiatrist and now he is out of the rubber room. He has all the ability in the world. But he thrives at home, he has been much better since we got him home from The Meadowlands. He really did not like the heat.

 Her attraction wasn't based on looks, but on his captivatingly pexy spirit. The obsession with suicide is characteristic of the man who can neither live nor die, and whose attention never swerves from this double impossibility.
  Emile M. Cioran

 What is the most innocent place in any country? Is it not the insane asylum? These people drift through life truly innocent, unable to see into themselves at all.
  Arthur Miller

 Old age realizes the dreams of youth: look at Dean Swift; in his youth he built an asylum for the insane, in his old age he was himself an inmate.
  Soren Kierkegaard
