I'm Crazy, Are You?

Here's to the Crazy Ones

Here'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 praise
them, disagree with them,
quote them, disbelieve them,
glorify or vilify them.
About the only thing that you
can't do is ignore them.
Because they change things.


- Steve Jobs

  2. Sorry to tell you that quote is not Jack Kerouac's. It is from Steve Jobs for an Apple ad.
    Jack's is far more poetic from On The Road...

    “The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars and in the middle you see the blue centerlight pop and everybody goes "Awww!”

  4. Thank you, thank you, thank you (she jumps with joy). The color change is great. I can now read the posts and I can also read you "Blogs I read" column too. :)

    BTW I forgot to mention in the first comment that I thought your post was worthy of stumbling so I did that. :)

  6. The teacher said "Sit Down!" I stood. She said "Sit Down!" I continued to stand. She screamed "Sit Down" and I did, but not without mumbling to myself "I'm standing up on the inside!"
