About This Quote

The quote, "All are lunatics, but he who can analyze his delusion is called a philosopher" is about the way we see things through the lens of our own perspective. When we look at life from another person’s perspective, we might find that their perception of reality isn’t so different than our own. We tend to ignore this because it goes against what we believe to be true.
