It's hard to have creativity without the paranoia, racism and so forth.
I don't think you're right. That would imply that (a) creativity and reason are incompatible, which is manifestly untrue; and that (b) intuition is irrational. I don't think either of these suppositions is true at all. Creativity isn't contrary to good judgement, it fosters it. It's the people without imagination who make the false conclusions and cling to their prejudices.

Creativity will save us if anything will.
