a. She thinks that I'm crazy, but crazy is she.
b. She thinks that I'm crazy, but crazy she is.
c. She thinks that I'm crazy, but crazy is her.
I think letter "c" is correct, am I right?
Tks.

Technically, you could say "She thinks that I'm crazy, but she is crazy." However, I don't think anyone would actually say or write that. We would add words for emphasis, such as
"She thinks that I'm crazy, but actually, she is crazy."
"She thinks that I'm crazy, but she's the crazy one."
Etc.
(The second "she" would be stressed in speech.)
