I have always thought of myself as a very quiet person, up until recently, where I have had the privilege of meeting a very special girl. She is the sort that talks very little and very softly. She is the sort that most people would brush aside as being a wallflower. However, when she does share, whether in the rare times verbally or through email, she is the most incredibly sincere person I have ever met, and her deep love for others is apparent. She is not in the least influenced by peer pressure and the world's standards, and is not in the least bothered about blending in or looking good/appearing popular outwardly. I have never heard her talk rubbish, or engage in the idle talk most of us love because it doesn't require much thought and avoids the serious issues. Sometimes I wonder what goes on inside her head, and I suspect its wondering how much rubbish the typical person spouts a day and putting up with it, and is too polite to tell us so! :b
Such people's perspectives are so important because they view the world so differently from the crowd, and point out details that pretty much everyone overlooks. It's no wonder that most of the revolutionaries and geniuses of the world never fit into the crowd.
"Man looks at the outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart."

A verse that jumped out of the page today for me when I was randomly searching.
God will bring down their pride
despite the cleverness of their hands.
He will bring down your high fortified walls
and lay them low;
he will bring them down to the ground,
to the very dust.
Isaiah 25:11-12
