This isn’t really a poem, but it can read like one. A reader wrote in asking after who the author was. The words, the foundation of Apple’s famous “Think different” campaign, will be famliar to many. According to Wikipedia, the text was written by Rob Siltanen with participation of Lee Clow, copywriters with Chiat/Day. Thinking different may not be such a bad idea as we kick off this new legislative season.

Here’s to the crazy ones  – Rob Siltanen & Lee Clow

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 genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.
