Eccentricity is important because it is one of the ways an individual is quietly subversive, undermining whatever is conventional, unquestioned, passively assumed. It is the quintessential expression of personal style since eccentricity is not so much what one does as the way one does it. Being slightly off center or out of center (ex centric) also challenges our comfortable ideas about sanity and rationality and the value of logical thinking.
