Weather, Or Not

Alas, being smart does too often lead to not being understood. But it is posssible for a person to have both sheer intellectual power and deep insight- otherwise, we would not have writers like Shakespeare, Cervantes, Octavio Paz, Murasaki, Li Po, Tu Fu, etc. And, I have known many people of a scientific bent who had great understanding of art and the humanities. They just happen to be more interested in science. I suspect that such people actaully make the best scientists.
