Finally, RE Ms Heller:


No excellent soul is exempt from a mixture of madness. (Aristotle)


Some people never go crazy. What truly horrible lives they must live. (Charles Bukowski)

In a dark time, the mind begins to see. (Theodore Roethke)

The mad see dung as dung and angels as angels. The sane see dung as angels and angels as dung. (Henry Miller)

RE Zoe Heller:


The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars...

Jack Kerouac

As Mirabeau said, “Good sense is the absence of every strong passion, and only men of strong passions can be great.” Good sense travels on the well-worn paths; genius, never. And that is why the crowd, not altogether without reason, is so ready to treat great men as lunatics, while the lettered crowd cry out when as I have attempted to do here - this general opinion is attached to a theory… It must be added that moral insanity and epilepsy which are so often found in association with genius are among the forms of mental alienation which are most difficult to verify, so that they are often denied even during life, although quite evident to the alienist.

Just as giants pay a heavy ransom for their stature in sterility and relative muscular and mental weakness, so the giants of thought expiate their intellectual force in degeneration and psychoses. It is thus that the signs of Degeneration are found more frequently in men of genius than even in the insane.

Cesare Lombroso
