"Ah, so you shall be misunderstood."-Is that so bad,then, to be misunderstood? Pythagoras was misunderstood, and Socrates, and Jesus, and Luther, and Copernicus, and Galileo, and Newton, and every pure and wise spirit that ever took flesh. To be great is to be misunderstood...(from Self-Reliance by Ralph Waldo Emerson)
I love this because its so true, I mean when is it you surprise to world the most? when you are underestimated, and not understood. I mean how many movies are there about the underdog rising to the top and proving someone wrong? how many stories do you hear about the little guy saving the day? And as teenagers we are misunderstood the most, we have greatness and potential all we have to do is seize that.
