Just live your life in a way you feel comfortable with.

The film tells the story of a boy who grew up in the arms of his fanciful artist mother. After a series of family troubles, the boy was sent to be raised by his mother's psychiatrist.

At the psychiatrist's home, the boy experiences an unprecedented series of funny, sad, and nonsensical things brought on by people who are bizarre to insane.

After reading it, I want to say, perverted? Maybe yes, in a group of crazy people, if you are the only normal person, you will wonder if you are the other one.

This is normal. Everyone's living environment is different. Naturally, they see things from different angles, and their thoughts and behaviors will vary greatly.

In life, everyone tries to make themselves look normal, try to find people with similar labels to them as much as possible, or become one of the popular labels as much as possible, so as not to be alien in the eyes of others. However, long-term suppression of inner feelings (such as thoughts, anger) can lead to the other extreme.

Carol feels that it is better to face it calmly. For example, in the film, everyone works hard to live a life that they feel comfortable with.

    1 Crazy to please, am I crazy too? 2. I think the doctor has developed one lunatic after another. I have to think of the self-poisoning behavior of the anti-virus software company.

Running with Scissors quotes

  • Norman Burroughs: So... you're saying we should split up?

    Dr. Finch: In order to reach that conclusion, Norman, I would need to see both you and Deirdre on a regular and disciplined basis, for five hours a day.

    Deirdre Burroughs: I'm available, Doctor Finch.

    Norman Burroughs: Five hours a day? I can't do that! I have to work!

    Deirdre Burroughs: See, Doctor Finch, I told you. I'm married to a narcissist.

    Dr. Finch: Norman, if I'm willing to clear my schedule to save your marriage, but you're not... then get out! Leave this office, go home, and start dividing your books and your record albums.

    Norman Burroughs: This is bullshit. This is really fucking bullshit.

    Dr. Finch: [begins writing in his notebook]

    Norman Burroughs: What're you writing?

    Dr. Finch: "Norman Burroughs is homicidal. He is an unapologetic alcoholic. He is dangerous and a threat to himself, his wife, and his child."

    Neil Bookman: Holy Mary, Mother Of God. So that's what this is about. You're gay?
