An anomaly has his own ambitions. You can try reasoning with him, but that's like using money to bribe a beast.

I'm a lion in a strange land.

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

When you're the only sane person, you look like the only insane person.

A distaste for the new is not always fear of the unknown, but sometimes ambition. Some people don't like the new way simply because they never got a chance to master the old way.

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.
