eccentricity

Maman, I know we are a colorful brood.
I can say wholeheartedly that I love it.


Eccentricity is not, as dull people would have us believe, a form of madness. It is often a kind of innocent pride, and the man of genius and the aristocrat are frequently regarded as eccentrics because genius and aristocrat are entirely unafraid of and uninfluenced by the opinions and vagaries of the crowd.

Why not be oneself ? That is the whole secret of a successful appearance. If one is a greyhound, why try to look like a Pekingese?
