Jon Ronson Quotes

Sometimes the personalities at the helm of the madness industry are, with their drives and obsessions, as mad in their own way as those they study. And that relatively ordinary people are, more and more, defined by their maddest edges Picture Quote #1

It’s a lot harder to convince people you’re sane than it is to convince them you’re crazy Picture Quote #1

I have thought sometimes that the sanest people, the people who are just very balanced, very happy, are probably lower achieving than other people. My kind of irrationality happens to be fear or anxiety Picture Quote #1

Of course there are people who would like to eat breakfast without the screams of toddlers all around them, but those people should get over themselves and stop being stuck up and idiotic Picture Quote #1

It is slightly chilling to realize there are rational, functional people up there employed to spot, nurture, and exploit those down here among us who are irrational and can barely cope. If you want to know how stupid you’re perceived to be by the people up there, count the unsolicited junk mail you receive. If you get a lot, you’re perceived to be alluringly stupid Picture Quote #1

But on the extremist side I didn’t get any rejections at all. Everyone agreed to talk to me Picture Quote #1

Oh, you know what bloggers are like, they write and write and write. I don’t know why, because they’re not being paid Picture Quote #1

Suddenly, madness was everywhere, and I was determined to learn about the impact it had on the way society evolves. I’ve always believed society to be a fundamentally rational thing, but what if it isn’t? What if it is built on insanity? Picture Quote #1

We have to understand how the extremists got the way they are. Without that kind of understanding, we’d never really get to know them. I put in nothing about their childhoods. But what I have put in is stuff about the weird symbiotic relationship between us and them Picture Quote #1

Nothing uniquely bad has happened to me in my personal life, but all the regular little bad things have accumulated to make me a neurotic person. And these adventures are my way of trying to make sense of that Picture Quote #1

My paranoia never ends, but I haven’t been paranoid about being spied on my shadowy forces for some time now Picture Quote #1

At first, I did stories on people who were maybe just eccentric. Omar was a natural progression from that Picture Quote #1
