New research shows a possible explanation for the link between mental health and creativity. By studying receptors in the brain, researchers at Karolinska Institutet have managed to show that the dopamine system in healthy, highly creative people is similar in some respects to that seen in people with schizophrenia. “Thinking outside the box might be facilitated by having a somewhat less intact box.”

This is all well and good but does nothing to explain the golden retriever in a suit smoking a pipe telling me to kill the bourgeoisie.  

“Thinking outside the box might be facilitated by having a somewhat less intact box,” - Professor Fredrik Ullén HA. This makes perfect sense. Grasshoppers?!

Well, I have wondered at many points if I am schizophrenic, so maybe this explains some of the correlations.
