I despise people who do not understand that insanity is a deterioration of mental health/well-being and entails distortion of reality whereas high intelligence is not easily understood but does not necessitate a breakdown of logic and mental acuity. Insanity refers to a structural framework (and most of the time a neurochemical problem) whereas intelligence may possess similar traits of social isolation at times, but the person's sanity is intact.
How do people get so confused? It seems as if the easy way to feel superior is to say they've lost their marbles. If they'd only be knowledgeable about the process and all that is involved in losing one's marbles, would they blurt the same thing?
If a dummy gets upset and loses it, he is just acting on his true feelings. If an intelligent person loses it, he's mad/crazy?
