Richard Dreyfuss did the voiceover for the original spot (duration: 30 seconds; and worthwhile watching this iconic clip) that aired around 1997.
Here is the unabbreviated text of the advertisement:
- Here’s to the crazy ones.
- The misfits. — The rebels. — The troublemakers.
- The round pegs in the square holes.
- The ones who see things differently.
- They’re not fond of rules.
- And they have no respect for the status quo.
- You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them.
- But the only thing you can’t do is ignore them.
- Because they change things.
- They push the human race forward.
- And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius.
- Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world,
are the ones who do.
