Midsummer nights dream

When discrediting the young Athenians’ stories, Theseus says, “Lovers and madmen have such seething brains, such shaping fantasies, that apprehend more than cool reason ever comprehends.” Explain his meaning. Do you agree with this idea?

This means that madmen, or crazy people, think alike such as that to lovers, or people who are in love because they don't think about their choices and they also have fantasies. I agree with this statement because when someone is in love, they cannot think straight just like madmen.
