Every society, every individual is continually aware of a scale of values according to which he determines his actions and judges those of others. But the standard of values changes constantly; many actions are called evil but are simply stupid because the degree of intelligence which decided for them was very low. Indeed, in a sense all our actions are at present still stupid; for the highest degree of human intelligence that can now be reached will certainly be yet surpassed. In retrospect then, all our actions and judgments will appear as narrow minded and precipitous as the actions and judgments of backward savages now appear to us. ~Nietzche

Here's to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in a square hole, 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, and are the ones who'll do it. Think Different. ~Apple Computer Commercial (Okay I absolutely hate Macs, even more than I do Packard Bells, but this is good so I stuck it here.)
