What is Eccentricity?
{{About|unusual human habits|eccentricity of orbits|Orbital eccentricity}} {{unsourced|date=May 2012}} '''Eccentricity''' or '''extravagance''' is a word used to describe unusual [[behaviour]] in a person. People who have [[habit]]s which many people think are very [[strange]] may be called '''eccentric'''. Eccentric behaviour is not necessarily good or bad in itself. Some [[clever]] people ([[genius]]es) have behaviour which might be described as eccentric. It is not always clear whether behaviour is just eccentric or whether it is [[madness]]. Famous people who were eccentric in their different ways include [[Albert Einstein]], [[Nero]], [[Alan Turing]], [[Howard Hughes]], [[Ludwig II of Bavaria]] and [[Lord Berners]]. {{stub}} [[Category:Sociology]] [[Category:Human behavior]]
