A história de cada dia. — O que constitui, no teu caso, a história de cada dia? Observa os teus hábitos, de que ela é feita: são eles o produto de inumeráveis pequenas cobardias e preguiças, ou da tua coragem e da tua razão inventiva?
Die Geschichte jedes Tages. — Was macht bei dir die Geschichte jedes Tages? Siehe deine Gewohnheiten an, aus denen sie besteht: sind sie das Erzeugnis zahlloser kleiner Feigheiten und Faulheiten oder das deiner Tapferkeit und erfinderischen Vernunft?
—Friedrich Nietzsche, A Gaia Ciência (Machine translation a partir do original.)
To love is to love another’s deviance. What makes you you and them them is how one deviates from the norm. (…) It’s about whether two people’s madnesses are compatible. To enter conflict consciously with doubt as a part of your ever-evolving history of perception is difficult, risky even, especially if the other person is not entering the conflit with an understanding of the principles of perception. Thus, in addition to humility, creativity requires courage because you are stepping into a space that your brain evolved to avoid.
—Beau Lotto, Deviate, Weidenfeld & Nicolson, 2018
What is interesting and ironic is that the more creative and intelligent the individual, the more difficult it can be to dissuade them from their anger response, since they are better at finding seemingly meaningful connections in what are in fact non-causal relationships, as well as creating internally consistent arguments that support their erroneous position, thus protecting them from uncertainty of ignorance.

The importance of interconnectedness is reflected in the brain itself. In a creatively engaged mind there are higher levels of cortical activity… that is, more ideas generating heat both during moments of “inspiration” and in general. This is because patterns become more widely distributed and thus more connected and interactive. Inhibition also goes down, which means the voice in your mind that loves to shout the Physics of No speaks less often and less loudly. In case you were wondering some psychedelic drugs like those found in “magic mushrooms” have a similar effect on the brain.
