Happy Quote
March 13, 2007 in Happy QuotesHere's to the crazy ones.
The misfits.
The rebels.
The troublemakers.
The round pegs in the square holes.
The ones who see things differently.
They're not fond of rules.
And they have no respect for the status quo.
You can quote them, disagree with them,
glorify or vilify them.
About the only thing you can't do is ignore them.
Because they change things.
They push the human race forward.
And while some may see them as the crazy ones,
we see genius.
Because the people who are crazy enough to think
they can change the world, are the ones who do.
—Apple Computer (just an ad, but still pretty inspiring)
So freaking true! Awesome post!
On a side note, I found you through stumble upon and give you thumbs up! Great site.

I see a lot of kids who do the misfit, rebal, trouble maker thing and their not even in the genius ball park (or planet?) Just because he colors his hair blue, doesn't mean he's going to move the human race forward. No, it's got to be something else. I think it has something to do with finding meaning - if coloring my hair blue really means something to me, and is not just there so that people will ask me why my hair is blue, then we've got the right spirit.
Also this 'break all the rules' seems to be all the fad lately. What I find funny about this is that the people who usually say this are the ones who follow the rules, know the rules, then find a new paradigm and find success with that.

Ah, the iPod... *really* makes me think of "misfit." Yep, first word that comes to mind.
