About This Quote

Mad folks are often as dangerous as bad ones. As a society, we like to classify people into categories and then put them into one of two groups: good and bad. But this is not always accurate when it comes to mental illness. Some people who suffer from mental illness are truly good people, they just have a different way of thinking or feeling about things than most people. It’s important to remember that they’re still human beings with the same hopes and fears as the rest of us. If you have any questions about the quotes, feel free to ask me in the comments!
