1= Man who follows the crowd, will usually get no further than

the crowd. The man who walks alone is likely to find himself in

places no one has ever been before.

2= Creativity in living is not without its attendant difficulties, forpeculiarity breeds contempt. And the unfortunate thing about

being ahead of your time is that when people finally realize you

were right, theyll say it was obvious all along.

3= You have two choices in life: you can dissolve into the

mainstream or you can be distinct. To be distinct, you must be

different. To be different, you must strive to be what no one else IS,

but you can be...

Creativity is walking alone
