Do you think that I am insane? Do you suppose that some stupid psychiatrist could even attempt to fathom the workings of my psyche?

@mike4evolution Do you read for pleasure as well as knowledge? Here's a suggestion that will feed both desires. A Confederacy of Dunces by John Kennedy Toole. He was American (committed suicide) but only an American with a different mind could have written it. Oft read since 16.
