“Eccentricity has always abounded when and where strength of character has abounded; and the amount of eccentricity in a society has generally been proportional to the amount of genius, mental vigor, and moral courage which it contained.”
It’s not about different shapes eccentricity can take or heights it can cross. The article has portrayed the emerging cult of tattoo freaks who have bared their true self in an artistic way. The tattoos may not look artistic for the viewer, but they display the true nature life holds for them; as with Aubrey’s ‘transistor tattoo’ and Blake’s ‘DNA double-helix tattoo’.
The aim of the effort of the geeks or nerds is to get the motivational spark from things that influenced and changed their lives forever.
