Depression is not uncommon among the exceedingly intelligent.

Kind of scary.
What do they know that I don't know?
Oh well...I guess I should be glad that ignorance is bliss.

Various forms of mental illness stalk the very intelligent.

Depression is a clinical disease, just as schizophrenia is. Think of John Nash from "A Beautiful Mind." Very bright...and for a long time, very sick.

We see the world as it truly is and we realise that we are surrounded by morons -- so many that there is no hope for humanity to ever reach its full potential. Those who can adapt do so by becoming incredibly cynical and finding pleasure in shattering the illusions of others.
