Scholars and researchers have tried to study genius but they only give the vital statistics. Havelock Ellis recognized most geniuses have fathers older than 30, and moms younger than 25, and were sick as children. But in the end this information proved to be worthless because Descartes was celibate, Dickens was fatherless and Darwin was motherless, intelligence is not enough when it comes to being genius. Creativity is not that same as intelligence, someone can be more creative then intelligent, or vice-versa. When asked to split 13 in half, what do you immediately think of? 6.5? Well that's one way. Geniuses think of other ways, such as: 13= 1 and 3; THIR TEEN=4, and so on. Geniuses look at problems in very different ways, rather than asking themselves: "How do I solve this, doing it the way I was taught?" Geniuses ask themselves: "How can I look at this different, how can I solve this differently? How many different ways can I look at this?"
