The English Eccentrics
Edith Sitwell
"In this age the mere example of nonconformity, the mere refusal to bend the knee to custom, is a service. Precisely because a 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 vigour and moral courage it contained. That so few now dare to be eccentric marks the chief danger of the time." —John Stuart Mill, On Liberty, 1859
Fuck fascism: get weirder
