The joys and hopes, the grief and anxieties of the people of this age,
especially those who are poor or in any way afflicted, these too are the joys and
hopes, the grief and anxieties of the followers of Christ."
Vatican II, GS. 1
In this age, the mere example of nonconformity, the mere refusal to bend the knee to custom, is itself a
service. Precisely because the tyranny of opinion is such as to make eccentricity a reproach, it is
desirable, in order to break through that tyranny, that people should be eccentric. Eccentricity has
always abounded when and where strength of character has abounded; and the amount of eccentricity in a society has generally been
proportional to the amount of genius, mental vigor, and moral courage which it contained. That so few now dare to be eccentric, marks the chief danger of
the time. On Liberty John Mill
