The world is put back by the death of every one who has to sacrifice the development of his or her peculiar gifts to conventionality.

Florence Nightingale, English Activist (1820-1910)

Here society is reduced to its original elements, the whole fabric of art and conventionality is struck rudely to pieces, and men find themselves suddenly brought back to the wants and resources of their original natures.

Francis Parkman, American Historian (1823-1893)

What worse illness can there be than acute conventionality. You should pray every night that you don't wake up with it.

George Weinberg, American Psychologist
