An adult can impose controls on his own behavior—if he’s grown up—but how does he order what he feels?”
    —Leontine Young (20th century)

    “Everybody’s a mad scientist, and life is their lab. We’re all trying to experiment to find a way to live, to solve problems, to fend off madness and chaos.”
