Are you intimating something missy? lol Actually, there is a fine line between genius and insanity. Sometimes they walk hand in hand.

Both insanity and genius are subjective. I do not think they are in any way related, actually. The craziest people I've ever observed have been some of the most ignorant and the most intelligent people in my realm are mature and stable and responsible. The confusion comes when the so called genius comes up with a new idea and the less Intelligent masses- being as they are- don't understand what's going on so- being as they are- they attack it and doubt it and call the person crazy....until the idea bears fruit, then they change his label to genius. A true madman (if there really is such a thing) does not necessarily have new ideas and if he does they tend to manifest incoherent and nonsensical. Basically, the so called genius seems crazy or insane, while the madman really is.

Einstein was very eccentric and neurotic. Think of it...all that brain power...how can you not teeter on the brink of insanity with all those mighty thoughts ravaging your head? LOL

Oh yes, in fact,
you know the saying "ignorance is bliss"?
Well, the opposite is totally true as well. If you are smart, then you are totally tormented at all times... never any rest!!

Yes. I think all one needs is a little push to the other side.

I believe that there is, yes. I have several family members who are considered 'geniuses' based on their IQ's, and I have to tell you-- they're all crazy. No lie.

yes,there isn't much difference at all, geniuses just get recognized for their crazy theories, that just happen to work

yes, and most true geniuses have their gift in one field of thought, in every other subject, they are clueless.
