—Adam Smith (1723–1790)
“Eccentricity is not, as dull people would have us believe, a form of madness. It is often a kind of innocent pride, and the man of genius and the aristocrat are frequently regarded as eccentrics because genius and aristocrat are entirely unafraid of and uninfluenced by the opinions and vagaries of the crowd.”
—Dame Edith Sitwell (1887–1964)
“The golden age, when rambunctious spirits were regarded as the source of evil.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
