The Word Made Flesh
…because 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!”I like too many things and get all confused and hung-up running from one falling star to another till I drop. This is the night, what it does to you.My fault, my failure, is not in the passions I have, but in my lack of control of them.Great things are not accomplished by those who yield to trends and fads and popular opinion.One day I will find the right words, and they will be simple.I promise I shall never give up, and that I’ll die yelling and laughingHere’s to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The trouble-makers. 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, 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 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.
