The New York Review of Books merchandise store has this pendant necklace for sale stating "We're all mad here". "Mad" is used in the British sense meaning insane. It's a line from Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland:
“But I don’t want to go among mad people," Alice remarked.
"Oh, you can’t help that," said the Cat: "we’re all mad here. I’m mad. You’re mad."
"How do you know I’m mad?" said Alice.
"You must be," said the Cat, "or you wouldn’t have come here.”
This is a fun gift for that special friend who marches to the beat of a different drummer.
