“He smiled all the way to physics class. He almost laughed out loud when he passed through the door and saw her shadowy, hunched-over form casting around for a seat in the back.She was in his class; this was excellent. Maybe she’d call him a name if he struck up another conversation. Even curse him out. That might fun. God, he’d probably earn himself a restraining order if he tried to sit next to her.He was so tired of saccharine smiles and cloying tones of voice. People always plastered their eyes to his face for fear of looking anywhere else. He was fed up with everybody being so goddamned nice.That’s why he’d already fallen in love with this weird, maladjusted, beautiful girl who carried a chip the size of Ohio on her shoulder. Because nobody was ever mean to the guy in the wheelchair.”
Francine Pascal
“Sorrow is not itself evidence of maladjustment but of the adjustment process itself.”
Germaine Greer, The Change: Women, Ageing, and the Menopause“Human Salvation lies in the hands of the creatively maladjusted.”
Martin Luther King, Jr.“Human salvation lies in the hands of the creatively maladjusted.”
Martin Luther King Jr.“This is a diseased world in which it is impossible for anyone to be fully human. One way or another, everyone who lives in the modern world is sick or maladjusted.”
David T. Dellinger, Revolutionary Nonviolence: Essays“We see, then, that even from the zoological point of view, which is the least interesting and—note this—not decisive, a being in such condition can never achieve a genuine equilibrium; we also see something that differs from the idea of challenge-response in Toynbee and, in my judgement, effectively constitutes human life: namely, that no surroundings or change of surroundings can in itself be described as an obstacle, a difficulty, and a challenge for man, but that the difficulty is always relative to the projects which man creates in his imagination, to what he customarily calls his ideals; in short, relative to what man wants to be. This affords us an idea of challenge-and-response which is much deeper and more decisive than the merely anecdotal, adventitious, and accidental idea which Toynbee proposes. In its light, all of human life appears to us as what it is permanently: a dramatic confrontation and struggle of man with the world and not a mere occasional maladjustment which is produced at certain moments.”
José Ortega y Gasset, An Interpretation of Universal History“People can poison people”
people can also promote people. People can push people up“Our people are good people”
our people are kind people. Pray God some day kind people won't all be poor.“The people's government, made for the people, made by the people, and answerable to the people.”
Daniel Webster“People use people according to their own needs. Or don't use them. When a primary need is one of safety.”
