{{quote|'''Delirium:''' His madness... His madness keeps him sane.<br />

 

Sometimes the world you find yourself in is so [[Crapsack World|grim]] or [[Dystopia|stressful]], if not [[Dark World|horrific]], that the only way to keep from going crazy is to..well, go crazy. You thus end up acting in [[Silly Walk|silly]], if not [[Cloudcuckoolander|bizarre]], ways, just to keep from truly [[Ax Crazy|losing it]] [[Freak-Out|for good]] due to all the horror and depression and genuine ''[[World Gone Mad|lunacy]]'' surrounding you.
