Where's Waldo?

Well chances are he's dead. And if he is around somewhere I would hate to meet him. I'm allergic to zombies. But on a serious note Ralph Waldo Emerson was a transcendentalist who tried to transcend the norm of thinking. To believe in a higher sense of being. And he left us with many quotes. One of the ones that I found particularly interesting was this one....

"Whoso would be a man must be a nonconformist." - Ralph Waldo Emerson

Short and sweet right. But let me ask you do you follow the basic concept behind this quote? Do you march to the beat of your own drum despite what others do? And if you do explain. And if you don't explain as well. Tell me what you think its the logic behind the quote and do you think that many people follow this? Feel free to discuss
