"When someone tells you that you can't be who you are, you tell them you're a little monster and you can do anything." -Lady Gaga
Dickinson is officially off the luney bus. She sort of is reminding me of Gaga. By saying that insanity is normal Dickinson is merely trying to make herself normal. It wouldn't be called insanity if it were normal, Emily. It's a biography. Dickinson is trying to make her life ironic. Well I find it to be ironic that everyone insists she's a writing-genius and yet I always call her crazy after I read her poems. The most amusing thing is that she writes as fact, like Gaga. Because a controversial woman wrote it, it must be a universal fact. So be crazy like Dickinson, or be Gaga's Little Monster if you want to be considered normal because Dickinson said so. Make a lifestyle of not conforming along with the million other hipsters in the world.
