Sentences to ponder

I'm not sure if the book is interesting, have any of you read it?  But I remembered these sentences from a review:

Vincent checks herself into three additional institutions, masquerading
as a mental patient who tells the intake counselor that she doesn’t
feel “safe” (the magic word) in the real world. (She tries to pay for
these visits herself, but fails: in one of the book’s few funny
moments, her insurance company rebuffs offers of cash, because only
crazy people bankroll such visits themselves.)

Here is more.

As an aside, I was sent this song about the financial crisis.

Aren’t these “a year of doing such-and-such” books becoming awfully trite.

I read in a review that the book does not give any insights into the mental health industry that have not already been made.

Next we’ll have Keynes quoted as being against public works projects.
