Nonconformist Sylvia Plath verses Hunter S. Thompson

Nonconformist Maya Angelou verses Charles Bukowski

But first...

Here‘s To The Crazy Ones by Steve Jobs

Here's to the Crazy Ones.

The misfits. The rebels. 

The trouble-makers. 

The round pegs in the square holes.

The ones who see things differently. 

They're not fond of rules, and 

They have no respect for the status-quo. 

You can quote them, disagree with them, 

Glorify, or vilify them. 

About the only thing you can't do is ignore them. 

Because they change things. 

They push the human race forward. 

And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. 

Because the people who are crazy enough to think 

They can change the world - are 

The ones who DO! -Steve Jobs

Hunter S. Thompson

I took a deep breath & listened to the old brag of my heart. I am, I am, I am
-Sylvia Plath

I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead.  I lift my eyes and all is born again.

Or

Style is the answer to everything.  A fresh way to approach a dull or dangerous thing.  To do a dull thing with style is preferable to doing a dangerous thing without it.  To do a dangerous thing with style is what I call art.

-Charles Bukowski
