“Think Different”

R.I.P. Steve, you will be greatly missed.                          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 statusquo. 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.   The Think Different Ad from 1997, narrated by Steve Jobs: • You can also view this video directly on YouTube
