Here's Johnny..

“I was different from the others. I was different all my life. Therefore, I must be crazy or a genius. There was something wrong with me, I thought, because I seemed to see things other people didn’t see. I was always so psychic or intuitive or poetic or whatever you want to call it, that I was always seeing things in a hallucinatory way. People like me are aware of their so-called genius at ten, eight, nine. When I was about twelve I used to think I must be a genius, but nobody’s noticed. If there is such a thing as genius I am one, and if there isn’t I don’t care.”
