Here’s to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round heads 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 them, or vilify them. But the only thing you can’t do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And 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.

~

Jack Kerouac (via quote-book:nymphluna) (via michellardi) (via chuicide)

Sorry to burst your beat generation bubble, ladies and gents, but this quote is inaccurately attributed, unless Jack Kerouac turned out to be the genius behind the famous advertising slogan used by Apple in 1997, 28 years after the American writer’s death.  Think different.
