the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers

Here's to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, 

the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes... the ones who see things differently -- they're not fond of rules... 

you can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but 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 ones who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who do.

St. Thomas Aquinas (1923)

*

Pour forth a ray of Your brightness

 into the darkened places of my mind;

 disperse from my soul

 the twofold darkness

 into which I was born:

 sin and ignorance.

You make eloquent the tongues of infants.

Refine my speech and pour forth upon my lips

 the goodness of Your blessing.

Grant to me keenness of mind,

 capacity to remember,

 skill in learning,

 subtlety to interpret,

 and eloquence in speech.

May You

guide the beginning of my work,

direct its progress,

and bring it to completion.

You Who are true God and true Man,

 Who live and reign, world without end.

Amen
