wild caged birds cannot sing
If a caged bird does not know there is anything outside of his cage he will be fine. If he is curious to find out what is outside of his cage he will live in sadness. If the caged bird knows what is outside of his cage and loves the outside he will live in madness. If the bird has forgotten the taste the bliss outside he will still sing as a wild one does.

That reminds me of Wonko the Sane in the THHGTTG books. He lives outside the Universe to take care of it, since it's a madhouse.
Your point has been made many, many times by various philosophers.

Trey, there's an easy way to sum all that up.
