" Too much sanity may be madness. And maddest of all, to see life as it is and not as it should be. "

Sanity comes when you're calm inside and have the patience to observe the outer world unbiasedly. But too much sanity can be madness meaning that if you simply keep looking at things without enjoying your life or having any kind of adventure, that is reaching the level of madness.

The maddest of all, that means the person who knows the best of both worlds, when to enjoy and when to be still is living the way life should be lived. You must understand the reality of the world, so you don't have expectations that can not be fulfilled.

From a sane mind, you can accept the world and from madness, you can enjoy life.
