October 1, 2020 - Madness: A Bipolar Life - Marya Hornbacher Author, Professor and Journalist

“Madness will push you anywhere it wants. It never tells you where you’re going, or why. It tells you it doesn’t matter, it persuades you.

You will drive until you find it, the treasure, the thing you most desire.” –Marya Hornbacher “Madness: A Bipolar Life”
