"Man is not a rational animal, as the old commonplace affirms. Nor is he a sick animal. Man is a mad animal (who begins by being mad) and who, for this reason as well, becomes or can become rational. The sperm of reason is also contained in the complete madness of the initial autism."
Cornelius Castoriadis, The Imaginary Institution of Society.
