What is Nonconformity?

We all know that one person who marches to the beat of their own drummer. They don’t seem to care what others think and are always doing their own thing.

Nonconformity is simply adhering to your own values and standards, even if they don’t match those of the masses. It’s the act of going against the grain and choosing not to live in accordance with prevailing norms and customs.

In other words, nonconformity is about living a lifestyle that’s different than most live and learning to be immune to societal pressures. It’s about living according to your own standards instead of doing what others expect of you.

It takes courage to be a nonconfirmist, but it can also be incredibly liberating. So how can you start living a life more on your own terms? These nonconformity quotes help illuminate the way forward.

Let’s go!

“You have enemies? Good. That means you’ve stood up for something, sometime in your life.”

John F. Kennedy

“In this age, the mere example of nonconformity, the mere refusal to bend the knee to custom, is itself a service.”

Friedrich Nietzsche

“Most people are other people. Their thoughts are someone else’s opinions, their lives a mimicry, their passions a quotation.”

Oscar Wilde
nonconformity-quotes 6

“Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don’t matter and those who matter don’t mind.”
