On Conformity

“The opposite of courage in our society is not cowardice, it is conformity.” - Rollo May


“Conformity is the jailer of freedom and the enemy of growth.” - John Fitzgerald Kennedy


“I have a high state of resentment for the conformity in this country. If you're not married and having children, it's like your life is empty or you're a communist meanie.” - Bill Maher


“Case by case, we find that conformity is the easy way, and the path to privilege and prestige; dissidence carries personal costs.” - Noam Chomsky
