& Marco: I quit my job. I’m not paying bills.
George: You quit your job?
Marco: Yeah. Yeah, I escaped it.
George: How are you gonna eat?
Marco: No, I don’t need to pay for food anymore. I realized that. I can get free milk at Starbucks. I can get free ketchup at McDonald’s.
George: Ketchup?
Marco: Yeah, the body can survive on ketchup alone just for a long time. At least until the apocalypse.
& Dr. Strinsky: Sleeping less, being more personable, more creative, wild. Those are the beginnings of the illness. You were just walking up to the edge.
& Dr. Strinsky: Spreading messages in graffiti about the end of the human race... that doesn’t seem sane to me.
Marco: Well, you’re human, so you’re biased.
& Marco: Van Gogh. Top member of the Bipolar Club. You see this?
Nurse: Yes, it’s beautiful.
Marco: Yeah, that’s right. You know why?.. Because it’s the painting of the sky he saw from his sanitarium window while he was manic.
& Marco: Is that Emily Dickinson and Robert Lowell?.. Those are good poets. Do you know they were both bipolar?
Carla: You think every great artist was bipolar. It’s fine if it helps you.
Marco: «We of the craft are all crazy.»
Some are affected by gaiety,
others with melancholy.
But all are more or less touched."
You know who said that?.. Lord Byron. One of the greatest manic-depressive poets of all time.
& Marco: It’s in the opening to this book, Touched with Fire by Kay Jamison. She’s a psychologist.... She decided to write books about it. She did all this research, and she found all these crazy connections between bipolar and artistic genius all through history, all over the world. Instead of being ashamed of it, she made it a gift.
& Marco: You know, when people go to see The Nutcracker and they look over at their kids and they see their eyes light up when the world turns to magic at night... they’ll know that the music that Tchaikovsky composed was enriched by his bipolar, and not think of it as just a disease.
& Carla: Why did you name yourself Luna?
Marco: Because the lunatic looks to the moon as if asking it how he got stuck down here.
& Marco: She was like... she wished that she could have what those artists have that she writes about. But she doesn’t have the guts. That’s why she writes about them.
You know, do you think that Poe or Byron or Tchaikovsky, Melville, Hemingway, would’ve backed down and turned away from the storm the way she did? No. They rode the tides. They rode them, but she didn’t.
That’s why she writes about them, because she wants to be like them in her fantasy, but she can’t.
& Marco: We’re a mistake? Are we a mistake, Carla? Are we a mistake?
