I really like this one

I prefer to say it the way Shakespeare did: "Though this seems madness, yet there is method in't" (more blank stares though

I have seen a slight variation to this one in the US -
There is method TO his madness ("to" instead of "in").

It's not easy to understand the definition of the link above , they "manage to get the result" (-cite) , what does it mean ?

Poll: There's method in his madness.
