I'm a nerd :)

"Nothing makes me sadder than the peer pressure that enforces conformity and erases wonder...Countless others had the light of intellectual wonder extinguished because a thoughtless and swaggering fellow student called them nerds on the playground."

~Stephen Jay Gould, Bully for Brontosaurus.

"A bad cause will ever be supported by bad means and bad men."
