My dad used to say there is only a very thin line between being a genius or a madman .I don`t know why he allways said it though ,he might have been convincing all us lot that he wasn`t a nutter.

I think the difference between madness and genius is application. Take someone who has unlocked every last secret of the universe. If he turns his knowledge around for the betterment of all mankind, he's a genius. If he just decides to start spouting incomprehensible rubbish at any passerby, he's a lunatic.

Most definitely linked. Genius can cause madness. But Madness can not cause genius.

I think you can be mad and not be a genius, but I think if you're a genius you're most likely to be mad.

You can be mad without being a genius and a genius without being mad.

A poor person is considered crazy. A rich person is considered eccentric. Go figure.
