"Within ourselves lies a drive, a force that only makes sense to us.
it is force, that drive that can make a person crazy.
crazy is only what you make of it, in the past, most people have been trained to think that crazy is a negative thing... but I repeat, crazy us only what you make of it.
crazy is a state of mind comprised of desire, anger, knowledge, courage, fear & devotion.
crazy makes a man and woman fall in love, crazy makes a musician and artist talented.
crazy makes a dying man take his own life.
Make what you will of this but I cannot believe I would be any better off sane.
there-fore I am, and will remain, crazy."

"On the other hand, I want to oppose the idea that the school has to teach directly that special knowledge and those accomplishments which one has to use later directly in life. The demands of life are much too manifold to let such a specialized training in school appear possible. Apart from that, it seems to me, moreover, objectionable to treat the individual like a dead tool. The school should always have as its aim that the young man leave it as a harmonious personality, not as a specialist.... If a person masters the fundamentals of his subject and has learned to think and work independently, he will surely find his way and besides will better be able to adapt himself to progress and changes than the person whose training principally consists in the acquiring of detailed knowledge."
Albert Einstein
