He may be mad, but there's method in his madness. There nearly always is method in madness. It's what drives men mad, being methodical.
G. K. Chesterton, The Fad of the Fisherman (1922)

Tea, although an Oriental, Is a gentleman at least; Cocoa is a cad and coward, Cocoa is a vulgar beast.
As before, no source noted

A good novel tells us the truth about its hero; but a bad novel tells us the truth about its author.
ibid

(I'm trying to find a Chesterton quote about fantasy showing us the world anew, that Pratchett quoted in his talk last year. Haven't found it yet.)
