8. APPLE’ S DNA
Here’s to the crazy ones. The misfits . The rebels. The troublemakers.
The round page in the square holes. The one who see thing differently.
They are not found of rule. And they have no respect for the status quo.
You can quote them, disagree with them glorify and vilify them.
About the only thing you cant do is ignore them. Because they change things.
They push human race forward. And some see them as crazy one we see them as
Genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are
the one who do.
