An insincere critic of a sincere person never wins.

A number of our scientists boast intelligence but lack wisdom. I find those to be the predictable ones.

Creative people are often found either disagreeable or intimidating by mediocrities.

The crazy creatives are the creatives who never go completely mad. They aren't so easily disheartened by the seemingly endless amounts of scrutiny that creative individuals tend to receive because they, like insanity, are the ones who feed off of opposition and negative feedback and manage to continue along with a healthy ambition. It is the crazy that teaches us to use our gifts wisely and own all the attackers.
