To a Discerning Eye
Mar 29th, 2004 • Posted in: Quote from the Ethics FileMuch madness is divinest sense
To a discerning eye;
Much sense the starkest madness.
‘Tis the majority
In this, as all, prevails.
Assent, and you are sane;
Demur, — you’re straightway dangerous,
And handled with a chain.
– Emily Dickinson (U.S. poet, 1830-1886)
