Here's to the Crazy Ones | Think Different

poem by Apple Computers Inc.

                         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 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 g-
     enius. Because the people who are crazy
      enough to think they can change the
       world are the        ones who do.
