A Quote by Douglas Adams

We have normality. I repeat, we have normality. Anything you still can't cope with is therefore your own problem. — © Douglas Adams
We have normality. I repeat, we have normality. Anything you still can't cope with is therefore your own problem.
I was beginning to understand something about normality. Normality wasn't normal. It couldn't be. If normality were normal, everybody could leave it alone. They could sit back and let normality manifest itself. But people-and especially doctors- had doubts about normality. They weren't sure normality was up the job. And so they felt inclined to give it a boost.

To me the seventies represent normality, and, of course, it is a normality that is now anachronistic.
The classicist, and the naturalist who has much in common with him, refuse to see in the highest works of art anything but the exercise of judgement, sensibility, and skill. The romanticist cannot be satisfied with such a normal standard; for him art is essentially irrational - an experience beyond normality, sometimes destructive of normality, and at the very least evocative of that state of wonder which is the state of mind induced by the immediately inexplicable.
Anyway, yes, telephones but not mobile phones, fish and chips still wrapped in actual newspaper and still with some kind of flavour, people visiting each other without having to consult their appointment diaries, not being able to record anything from the television; if you missed it you missed it - these were all the kinds of thing that made up the normality of the seventies.
Normality is boring.
There is no normality in life.
Normality is death.
Normality is the new eccentric.
Comedy shouldn't be restrained under the belt of normality.
The return to normality is a defeat for the terrorists.
Without deviance from normality, there can be no progress.
Anxiety is the normality of our age.
Normality is the Great Neurosis of civilization.
There are the those whose own vulgar normality is so apparent and stultifying that they strive to escape it. They affect flamboyant behaviour and claim originality according to the fashionable eccentricities of their time. They claim brains or talent or indifference to mores in desperate attempts to deny their own mediocrity.
