Absolutely brilliant book by a man who interviewed Ian Brady over a number of years which confirmed for me finally that the lunatics are firmly in charge of the asylum!

Insanity is merely the label which we attach to an individual we don't understand (and can't control... unless physically) - it actually defines the definer... his/her inadequacy.

Comments and thoughts please as this interests me!

So, if you don't label Brady as insane that proves you are not inadequate.

Got it!

Funny enough I always feel totally inadequate myself after talking to you... so I guess I agree with you agreeing with me x
