Oh, and W.B. Yeats really, really did believe in fairies, and yet wrote The Second Coming, one of the most-quoted poems of all time.

Gee, could it be that writers tend to be wanderers on the edges of society and culture, and tend to have unorthodox opinions? Oh no! Unorthodoxy and uniqueness! We can’t have that— it must be destroyed in the name of patriotism, purity, and nativism.
