UNIFORMITY
To be nobody but yourself — in a world which is doing it’s best, night and day, to make you like everybody else — means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight, and never stop fighting. ~ e. e. cummings
There are two kinds of restrictions on human liberty — the restraint of law and that of custom. No written law has ever been more binding than unwritten custom supported by popular opinion. ~ Carrie Chapman Catt
Freedom of the mind requires not only, or not even especially, the absence of legal constraints but the presence of alternative thoughts. The most successful tyranny is not the one that uses force to assure uniformity, but the one that removes awareness of other possibilities. ~ Alan Bloom
