Most likely some unknown person who lived a short tragic life among people who thought he was a fool in an oppressive environment where he never felt at peace. He will never rest in peace. His tormented essence screams out in agony. The vibrations of that scream being the moving force within our minds when we get a moment of clarity and understand something new. The scream never ends, for no-one is even close to his level yet. Only when a mind exists that with its complexity absorbs the vibration of this ancient scream, only then will he be at peace. I hope someone, gets there. Some time. He deserves to rest.

Isaac Newton still is the """"smartest""" because he learned to write his books/papers so advanced/unapproachable as to deter any unsophisticated criticism, mainly the press at the time.
