While emotional intelligence is increasingly recognized (Gardner Intelligence personal and emotional for Goleman) and it remains an unparalleled advantage in the art persuasion, a broadening of the concept of intelligence to include knowledge of human beings, intelligence in moral matters is possible. In the words of Howard Gardner in "Intelligence Reframed"
as character, morality can be important-in fact more important than intelligence, but it should not be confused with intelligence?
He believes that no exceptional personalities that were studied examples of intelligence "morals" exception may be Gandhi. Picasso, Eliot, Graham, Freud, Stravinsky, and even by Einstein himself showed the insensitivity entity in many aspects of their personal lives while engaging sometimes for great causes.
Matthieu Ricard has written an excellent book with his father Jean-Francois Revel on Buddhism. He recounts his conversion and the philosophy of the Dalai Lama in "The Monk and the Philosopher" in which he confesses, "Yes I met Igor Stravinsky and other great musicians. So I had the chance to meet many of those who are admired in the West, and to be able to get a sense of wonder: Is this is what I aspire? Do I want to become like them? I felt I stay on my hunger, because despite my admiration, I could not fail to note that the genius shown by these men in a particular area, not accompanied perfections of humankind's most simple, like altruism, kindness, sincerity. "
These human qualities are they incompatible with creativity?
Can we be creative without contemplating himself?
there is inevitably a dark side which leads to selfishness and often megalomania and paranoia though unpleasant, but apparently necessary for creativity 
.
Psychologists noted that self-centeredness (other than self-interest) declined in humans but not in creative individuals. Similarly, Jean Piaget explains that, in children, "sensorimotor egocentrism is progressively reduced." Indeed, transforming an original idea in a comprehensible form requires a "strong ego." . Howard Gardner noted that the insurance whose creators were approached proof of a form of selfishness, egotism and narcissism. They are absorbed in their projects and it is not uncommon for the pursuit of their objectives leads to act to the detriment of others.
According to psychologist Eysenck, such a mixture of creative ability and insensitivity may have a genetic basis. Narcissism example of Kafka or Martha Graham meant they would not commit emotionally to a certain stage in their life not to halt their creative capacity. The ambiguity of the feelings of the artist is well reflected in the American film released this year "Capote." The desire for fame, selfishness or manipulation but may be compassion and love each other - Spiritual or physical - and hypersensitivity, mix in the same creative person.
We have an interesting document concerning the character of Picasso, this is the book published in 2002 by Marina Picasso, entitled "Picasso, my grandfather." She gave an interview to Barcelona daily La Vanguardia, February 14, 2002 with the title: "We can not be a genius and a good person (" buena persona "). "A cruel genius who destroyed many lives, my grandfather died alone, with a courtyard of courtiers; An artistic genius but also a cruel person who knew not be loved or love "(...)." All the women were finally materials for his art; Because the great artist devotes all his time and energy to his art, and everything is "all": all that remains nothing for the people around him "....
The filmd'Agnès Jaoui in 2004, "Comme une image" is remarkable and if true, it tells the story of Lolita Cassard, twenty years of suffering, for his Father Etienne Cassard is not much interested in her and in general "look the other bit, because he looks a lot himself," as stated in the synopsis.
In one of his last books on multiple intelligences, "Intelligence Reframed, Howard Gardner believes that none of the outstanding individuals he studied were examples of intelligence" morals "exception may be Gandhi. Picasso, Eliot, Graham, Freud, Stravinsky, and even Einstein demonstrated in his view of the moral insensibility in many aspects of their personal lives while engaging sometimes for great causes.
My own analysis follows that of Gardner, although some behaviors may be explained by the misunderstanding of his own suffering or self-therapy by the lust for power and domination of the other ...
Marx believed that trade was essentially a dishonest activity, but nothing prevents an honest merchant (eg the Quakers) release only minimal profits to pay themselves a fair wage. This applies to all trades.
Being ethical is just respect each other.
Vauvenargues said: "We must console themselves for not having the talent, as we comfort of not having large spaces: one can be above one and the other by the heart "
