Mountain Madness

There is only two things that quench my thirst of insanity; getting lost into the thoughts of mountains and being among them.

Is the above sentence grammatically correct and can it be used as spoken term?

Thanks

OK. Quench my thirst of/for insanity isn't going to work. You could say something like:
There are only two things that keep me sane:
There are only two things that keep insanity away:
There are only two things that keep my insanity under control:
