On Conformity 談順從

1. Conformity is the jailer of freedom and the enemy of growth.
順從是自由的監獄也是成長的敵人。

2. Equality, rightly understood as our founding fathers understood it, leads to liberty and to the emancipation of creative differences; wrongly understood, as it has been so tragically in our time, it leads first to conformity  and then to despotism.
所謂平等，正確的理解這個概念可以導致自由、創意差異的解放；但是錯誤的理解這個概念卻會導致順從進而專制。

3. The opposite of courage is not cowardice, it is conformity. Even a dead fish can go with the flow.
勇氣的相反不是懦夫，而是順從。就算是死魚也還是能夠順著水流。
