In the waking dreams our societies permit, in our myths, our arts, our
songs, we celebrate the
non-belongers, the different
ones, the outlaws, the freaks.

—Salman Rushdie

I have forced myself to contradict myself in order
to avoid conforming to
my own taste.

—Marcel Duchamp

The American ideal, after
all, is that everyone
should be as much alike
as possible.

—James Baldwin

________________



Follow the path of the unsafe, independent
thinker. Expose your
ideas to the danger of
controversy. Speak your mind and fear less the
label of ''crackpot'' than
the stigma of conformity.

—Thomas J. Watson

Every day people are
straying away from the church and going back

Yes, I see the Church as
the body of Christ. But,
oh! How we have
blemished and scarred
that body through social neglect and through fear
of being nonconformists.

—Martin Luther King Jr.

There is always one
moment in childhood
when the door opens
and lets the future in.

—Graham Greene
