The adjuration to be "normal" seems shockingly repellent to me; I see
neither hope nor comfort in sinking to that low level. I think it is
ignorance that makes people think of abnormality only with horror and
allows them to remain undismayed at the proximity of "normal" to average
and mediocre. For surely anyone who achieves anything is, essentially,
abnormal. -- Dr. Karl Menninger, "The Human Mind", 1930
