“Our society tends to regard as a sickness any mode of thought or behavior that is inconvenient for the system and this is plausible because when an individual doesn't fit into the system it causes pain to the individual as well as problems for the system. Thus the manipulation of an individual to adjust him to the system is seen as a cure for a sickness and therefore as good.”
― Theodore Kaczynski

“I鈥檓 very much down to earth, just not this earth.”

“We aren't human."

"Yes. We. Are." His voice turns fierce. "I don't give a shit what the something-somethingth council of big important farts decreed, or how the geomests classify things, or any of that. That we're not human is just the lie they tell themselves so they don't have to feel bad about how they treat us.”
― N.K. Jemisin, The Fifth Season

“Children are gifts. They are not ours for the breaking. They are ours for the making.”
― Dan Pearce, Single Dad Laughing: The Best of Year One

“Dads. It鈥檚 time to show our sons how to properly treat a woman. It鈥檚 time to show our daughters how a girl should expect be treated. It鈥檚 time to show forgiveness and compassion. It鈥檚 time to show our children empathy. It鈥檚 time to break social norms and teach a healthier way of life! It鈥檚 time to teach good gender roles and to ditch the unnecessary ones. Does it really matter if your son likes the color pink? Is it going to hurt anybody? Do you not see the damage it inflicts to tell a boy that there is something wrong with him because he likes a certain color? Do we not see the damage we do in labeling our girls 鈥渢om boys鈥� or our boys 鈥渇eminine鈥� just because they have their own likes and opinions on things? Things that really don鈥檛 matter?”
― Dan Pearce, Single Dad Laughing: The Best of Year One

“Labels are for filing. Labels are for clothing. Labels are not for people.”
― Martina Navratilova

“Dads. Do you not realize that a child is what you tell them they are? That people almost always become what they are labeled? Was whatever your child just did really the 鈥渄umbest thing you鈥檝e ever seen somebody do鈥�? Was it really the 鈥渕ost ridiculous thing they ever could have done鈥�? Do you really believe that your child is an idiot? Because she now does. Think about that. Because you said it, she now believes it. Bravo.”

“Dads. It鈥檚 time to tell our kids that we love them. Constantly. It鈥檚 time to show our kids that we love them. Constantly. It鈥檚 time to take joy in their twenty-thousand daily questions and their inability to do things as quickly as we鈥檇 like. It鈥檚 time to take joy in their quirks and their ticks. It鈥檚 time to take joy in their facial expressions and their mispronounced words. It鈥檚 time to take joy in everything that our kids are.”
― Dan Pearce, Single Dad Laughing: The Best of Year One

“Dads. Do your faces light up when you first see your child in the morning or when you come home from work? Do you not understand that a child鈥檚 entire sense of value can revolve around what they see in your face when you first see them?”
― Dan Pearce, Single Dad Laughing: The Best of Year One

“It sounds strange, somewhat on the line between irony and absurdity, to think that people would rather label and judge something as significant as each other but completely bypass a peanut. ... World peace is only a dream because people won't allow themselves and others around them to simply be peanuts. We won't allow the color of a man's heart to be the color of his skin, the premise of his beliefs, and his self-worth. We won't allow him to be a peanut, therefore we won't allow ourselves to come to live in harmony. (Diary 18)”
― Erin Gruwell, The Freedom Writers Diary

“Do you not realize that your kids are going to make mistakes, and a lot of them? Do you not realize the damage you do when you push your son鈥檚 nose into his mishaps or make your daughter feel worthless because she bumped or spilled something? Do you have any idea how easy it is to make your child feel abject? It鈥檚 as simple as letting out the words, 鈥渨hy would you do that!?鈥� or 鈥渉ow many times have I told you鈥�”

“As she grew older, Maddy discovered that she had disappointed almost everyone. An awkward girl with a sullen mouth, a curtain of hair, and a tendency to slouch, she had neither Mae's sweet nature nor sweet face. Her eyes were rather beautiful, but few people ever noticed this, and it was widely believed Maddy was ugly, a troublemaker, too clever for her own good, too stubborn - or too slack - to change.
Of course, folk agreed that it was not her fault she was so brown or her sister so pretty, but a smile costs nothing, as the saying goes, and if only the girl had made an effort once in a while, or even showed a little gratitude for all the help and free advice, then maybe she would have settled down.”
― Joanne Harris, Runemarks

“When you compare yourself with others, you start labeling yourself and others as well. Avoid this practice if you want to have high self-esteem.”
― Dr Prem Jagyasi

“A label locks me into a definition that people use to control me. A vision graces me with an idea that serves to release me.”
― Craig D. Lounsbrough

“The power to label is the power to destroy.”

“Loving my son, building my son, touching my son, playing with my son, being with my son鈥� these aren鈥檛 tasks that only super dads can perform. These are tasks that every dad should perform. Always. Without fail.”
― Dan Pearce, Single Dad Laughing: The Best of Year One

“Do not bend yourself to make others feel taller. When someone comes at you telling you what you are and slapping a label on you, simply ask them why. Why would you say that? Make THEM think.”
― Rose McGowan, Brave

“Labeling automatically leads to false conclusions and wrong assumptions about others.”

“Labeling is a lifetime trigger”
― Charmaine J Forde

“You only define yourself. And you do the defining. Don't let anyone box you into an identity of their choosing.”
― Salil Jha

“People take time. But in our haste, we size them up or cut them down to what we take to be a more manageable size, labeling people instead of trying to hear, understand or welcome them. And we love our labels as ourselves even as they don't - and can't - do justice to the complexity of our own lived lives or anyone else's. It's as if we'll do anything to avoid the burden of having to think twice. To form an opinion about someone or something is to assert - or to believe we've asserted - some kind of control. And in the rush to opine, we degrade ourselves and whatever it is we'd like to think we've spoken meaningfully about and defensively stick to hastily prepared and unconvincing scripts, as others have before us, of radical denial.”
― David Dark, Life's Too Short to Pretend You're Not Religious

“Simply to make the accusation is to prove it. To hear the allegation is to believe it. No motive for the perpetrator is necessary, no logic or rationale is required. Only a label is required. The label is the motive. The label is the evidence. The label is the logic. Why did Coleman Silk do this? Because he is an x, because he is a y, because he is both. First a racist and now a misogynist. It is too late in the century to call him a Communist, though that is the way it used to be done. A misogynistic act committed by a man who already proved himself capable of a vicious racist comment at the expense of a vulnerable student. That explains everything. That and the craziness.”
― Philip Roth, The Human Stain

“Titles are prisons of human potential”
― Natasha Tsakos

“Labels can also create self-fulfilling prophecies. If you are told you are sick, you feel and act sick, and others treat you as if you are sick.”
― Allen Frances, Saving Normal: An Insider's Revolt Against Out-Of-Control Psychiatric Diagnosis, DSM-5, Big Pharma, and the Medicalization of Ordinary Life

“As human beings, we are far too broad to be boxed into labels. You cannot lead a label. You can only lead a whole person.”
― Salil Jha

“Labels = Stigma = Low Self-Esteem = Self-Pity =
Drug/Alcohol Abuse Excuses”
― D.C. Hyden, The Sober Addict

“There are many things that are difficult to manage during this period of our nation's history; avoiding terms that reduce people to prison labels i not one of them.”
― Michelle Alexander, The New Jim Crow: Mass Incarceration in the Age of Colorblindness

“Man labels creatures in the wild as beasts for they see violence and malice in their eyes. Truth is it鈥檚 just a reflection. There are no beasts in the world of animals, only in the world of men.”
― Kelleen Goerlitz, The Complete Works of a Lost Girl

“My insecurities demand that I put you in a box that you were not created for so that I might live the ignorant life that I was not created for.”
