About This Quote

When you are truly passionate about something that others do not recognize, people will not see that you are crazy. Often that passion shows through in the form of your madness. Your madness is the only thing that attracts people to you. People who are crazy are often considered brilliant by their loyal followers because crazy ideas can be so original and so creative.

Crazy people are able to maintain their focus on the things they need to accomplish, while ignoring the opinions of others. They are able to ignore their critics because they know how important it is for them to keep moving forward towards what they want.
