i don't think so, genius people are special but they are not necessarily mean to be mad or crazy. intelligence is a gift and not a curse, as for me i admire people who are way above our level of thinking because they don't need to exert too much effort to get familiar or memorize something, it comes naturally.

People who are geniuses are not mad as in crazy at all. they are just operating at a higher level of intelligence than the rest of us. they have already learned things that we would have to study years to understand but that does not make them any more unbalanced than anyone else. Probably because we do not always understand their thinking we label them as mad when it is just our own inability to follow their thinking.While we are all putzing around in our little volkswagon thinking the genius is zooming past us in his Mercedes Bentz thinking. we are not mad nor is the genius mad.we are just at different levels of thinking.

They say there is a fine line between genius and insanity. That is completely true. It is actually very difficult to be a genius. People dont understand them and they expect so much more out of them. They are almost seen as inhuman. It isn't fair. Also, there is so much going on in their brains that I think it would be almost impossible not to feel a little crazy at times.
