No, there is no line...some of the greatest minds of the past have had one mental illness or another and many times knowing so much, and having so many thoughts can drive you insane...litterally.

Depends on what you consider sane. Personally I have never met a person I would consider sane, except children perhaps. If someone is hurting others that is truly not healthy. If someone is just very different, what's wrong with it? This whole notion of normal causes so many problems. I don't think there is any fine line, just too many people drawing lines. I do believe geniuses may suffer more sometimes because they are labeled different and because they see things others don't. Suffering can be an amazing teacher, it has been for me, and as difficult as my life has been, I am not sure I would change much about it. Everything comes with a price/balance. It is so very difficult to really see the big picture. But I digress, insanity, what's your definition?

conserving in ideas that insanity is a legal term and has to do with the regulation, i'm assuming what you truly advise is mentally unwell. there isn't any line between the two. some genius are mentally unwell merely as some conventional human beings and a few mentally challenged are. psychological ailment is on no account based on genius and conversely. an mind-blowing form of the large minds of the previous 2 hundred years weren't mentally unwell. an mind-blowing form of the mentally unwell human beings of the previous 2 hundred years weren't genius. Your correlation is defective. yet once you truly advise insane/insanity then you definitely are pathetically off base through fact the insane are in many cases character disordered and not mentally unwell besides the actuality that they could be mentally disabled.

There is a thin line between the loving of the insanity in one and hating of the twin genius within those cruelly infected by the geminaic malady. tru dat

Yes. To be a "genius," it usually means that you have extremely new and innovative ways of thinking. But people are uncomfortable with this, so they regard these thoughts as insane.
