Abstract

Orr was crazy, and could be grounded. But, because the rules said “a concern for one’s safety in the face of dangers that were real and immediate was the process of a rational mind,” Orr would cease to be crazy as soon as he asked to be grounded, and would thus have to fly more missions. Orr would be crazy to fly more missions and sane if he didn’t, but if he was sane, he had to fly them. If he flew them, he was crazy and didn’t have to; but if he didn’t want to, he was sane and had to. Yossarian was moved deeply by the absolute simplicity of this inescapable dilemma and let out a respectful whistle. “That’s some catch, that Catch-22,” he observed. “It’s the best there is,” Doc Daneeka agreed.1
