    Es gibt kein großes Genie ohne einen Hauch von Wahnsinn.

    no hay gran genio sin un toque de locura.

    il n'y a pas de grand génie sans un brin de folie.

    पागलपन के कुछ स्पर्श के बिना कोई महान प्रतिभा नहीं है।

    nincs nagy zseni némi őrület nélkül.

    광기의 손길이 없이는 위대한 천재가 없습니다.

    Nullum magnum ingenium sine mixtura dementiae est.

    nu există un mare geniu fără vreo atingere de nebunie.

    нет великого гения без прикосновения безумия.

    没有一点点疯狂,就没有伟大的天才。
