I just find it bizarre that one of the greatest minds of the 20th century starved to death, weighing 65 lbs, in late 70s Princeton. I realise there's no easy way to counteract someone determined not to eat, but it just seems like such a slow, painful and irrational way to die that it's hard to fathom (obviously driven by severe mental illness).

Sounds completely insane, but from what I can see is that insanity and genius often go hand in hand.
