"بدون جنون انسانیتی وجود ندارد"
— Fernando Pessoa
Simplified Meaning:
Humans are unique because we don't always act in predictable or completely rational ways. Think of creativity or passion -- they don't always follow logical patterns but make us special. For example, famous artists like Van Gogh or musicians like Beethoven were often called mad, but their 'madness' led to incredible, world-changing art and music. This idea suggests that if we were all completely logical and sane all the time, innovation and true human character might disappear. Embracing a bit of craziness can lead to extraordinary things and helps us understand more about what it means to be human. So, a little bit of 'madness' in our actions or thoughts can actually make life richer and more interesting.
