Think Different

Here's to the crazy ones.
The misfits. The rebels.
The trouble-makers.
The round pegs in the square holes.
The ones who sse things differently.
They are not fond of rules,
and they have no respect for the status-quo.
You can quote them, disagree with them,
Glorify, or vilify them.
But the only thing you can't do is ignore them.
Because htey change things.
they push the puman 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
