One Flew Over the Cuckcoo's Nest
There are certain qualities that makes a person who they are. No two people are exactly alike. Happiness, anger, sadness, madness, etc. are all emotions that humans have in life. Nikos Kazantzakis stated "a person needs a little madness, or else they never dare cut the rope and be free".

Like the quote says, "a person needs a little madness, or else they never dare cut the rope". Billy was a very obediant adult and did what he was told. But from his act of curiosity, Nurse Ratchet made him feel like he did something against his mother's beliefs and...
