Glennon Doyle
“Rebellion is as much of a cage as obedience is. They both mean living in reaction to someone else's way instead of forging your own.”
Glennon Doyle, Untamed: Stop Pleasing, Start Living / A Toolkit for Modern Life

“Discipline and Rebellion are like night and day. One can’t exist without the other and in that there is equilibrium. Rebellion is natural and you will do it, to whatever scale, at some point, that much is given. What really sets successful people apart from the rest is the response to discipline. At this age, you need to understand that whatever discipline you may receive is a limit. Simply a line in the sand, but the beach is still open.”
Stephan McGlashan, Future Titans

“Without deviating from the norm, even rebelling at times, there wouldn’t be any advancement. Throughout all of history, no one truly found themselves by following and adhering. They did so by embracing their individuality and challenging the dominant way of thinking; by standing out, not by fitting in.”
Omar Cherif

Kaylie  Fowler

the streets will inherit.”

Henri J.M. Nouwen
“The world’s love is and always will be conditional. The world says: “Yes, I love you if you are good-looking, intelligent, and wealthy. I am the prodigal son every time I search for unconditional love where it cannot be found. Whenever I prove to myself and to my world that I do not need God’s love, that I can make a life on my own, that I want to be fully independent. The great event on Rembrandt’s painting is the end of the great rebellion. I am loved so much that I am left free to leave home.”
Henri J.M. Nouwen, The Return of the Prodigal Son: A Story of Homecoming

I.C. Nicastro
“Her focus was on the king. "You sit up in your castle, worrying about nothing! Nothing but yourself and you should be ashamed. You lie to this kingdom,”
I.C. Nicastro, The Trials of Salahan

Abhijit Naskar
“You wanna try booze, try it - you wanna try weed, try it – you wanna get laid, go get laid - just do it all and get it over with, so that you can pay attention to the real troubles of society.”
Abhijit Naskar, Hometown Human: To Live for Soil and Society

“If what you are saying is having the opposite effect on the listener, you should stop saying it. Most parents don't understand this. They keep their taperecorder on until their rebellious children go completely out of hand.”
Shunya

Frank Herbert
“Todas las rebeliones son corrientes y extremadamente aburridas. Todas están copiadas del mismo modelo, y todas se parecen la una a la otra. Su fuerza motriz es la adicción a la adrenalina y el deseo de adquirir poder personal. Todos los rebeldes son pequeños aristócratas.”
Frank Herbert, God Emperor of Dune

“Now, with the team fully intact, we were ready to end this once and for all . . . .”
Jaya Robinson, The Butterfly Effect

Bertolt Brecht
“Sad is not the land with no hero. Sad is the land that needs a hero.”
Bertolt Brecht, Life of Galileo, The Resistible Rise Of Arturo Ui, The Caucasian Circle

Abhijit Naskar
“Liberty is not a new thing, animals live in absolute liberty with no bounds whatsoever since they came to existence on this planet, yet the animal world is not civilized, you know why – because though they have liberty, they do not have the brain capacity for accountability - and that very absence of accountability makes the kingdom of absolute liberty also the kingdom of absolute cruelty. Hence, it's accountability we ought to focus on, not liberty.”
Abhijit Naskar, Heart Force One: Need No Gun to Defend Society

“Fire, Earth, Air, Water -- one or more of these elements may make you restless. You need to spend them properly to find peace. To spend fire, burn outdated structures, taboos and so on. To spend Earth, build a structure, a good habit and so on. Spend air through creativity, spend water through serving and healing people.”
Shunya

“Although you were rebellion in disobedience, nonetheless, if you repent in obedience, then return to God now, he will not reject you.”
Lailah Gifty Akita

J.S. Jacob
“The act of rebellion is seeded in doubt that SAFER-U is what it claims to be, and the search for some satisfaction outside of us. We can see what life without SAFER-U, lived in rebellion and fear, does to areas where people have not let SAFER-U gain control. The rebellious and non-conforming choose their poverty by rejecting the safety and riches of our U-City’s.”
J.S. Jacob

Anthony Liccione
“Fire in a soul to serve God, is better than a soul in fire that refused.”
Anthony Liccione

Glennon Doyle
“Our society is so hell-bent on expansion, power and effiency at all costs that the folks [who question things or suggest the way something's done is not right,] are inconvenient. We slow the world down. We're on the bow of the Titanic, pointing, crying out, "Iceberg! Iceberg!" while everyone else is below deck, yelling back, "We just want to keep dancing!" It is easier to call us broken and dismiss us than to consider that we are responding appropriately to a broken world.”
Glennon Doyle, Untamed: Stop Pleasing, Start Living / Where the Crawdads Sing / Reasons to Stay Alive

Abhijit Naskar
“You wanna try booze, try it - you wanna try weed, try it – you wanna get laid, go get laid - just do it all and get it over with, so that you can pay attention to the real troubles of society. How dare you waste your life on nonsense! You may say, it is your life, and you can do whatever you want with it. To that I say, it is not your life, it is human life, and a human life that doesn't come to the aid of the society is anything but human.”
Abhijit Naskar, Hometown Human: To Live for Soil and Society

Vivian Gornick
“As Anton Chekhov so memorably put it, 'Others made me a slave but I must squeeze the slave out of me drop by drop.”
Vivian Gornick, The Men in My Life

Rishabh Dubey
“Life is a nefarious hoax cloaking sanity with the delinquent want and the reticent need. The reality is evanescent in the holographic light of success.”
Rishabh Dubey, Krikos: The Vertical Horizon

Rebecca Crunden
“By the time they were finished, noses and cheeks red with cold, hands and feet aching, lungs ready to burst, they were both exhausted, but their spirits were somewhat lifted. Even if they should fail, even if they should die, it would not be for lack of effort.”
Rebecca Crunden, A Promise of Return

Criss Jami
“In some respects, generations revolting against their parents result in resemblance to their grandparents.”
Criss Jami

“Either let the LORD decide how you should live or you decide how you should live. The humble and penitent sinner will choose the former, while the proud rebellious sinner will choose the latter and in both instances, the good point is that the LORD will honor your choice!”
Royal Raj S

Marcel M. du Plessis
“Within these walls,
That keep us in;
We muffle calls,
We don’t begin.

Here dancing is fighting,
And serpents speak truth,
Forever denying,
A voice of youth.

And so, we’re trapped in silence,
Never to kick free from the viscous prison,
Awaiting the talons of the next tyrant,
Never to recall heroes once risen.
Never to speak,
Never to see.”
Marcel M. du Plessis, The Silent Symphony

Rebecca Crunden
“Just because our world is wrong doesn’t mean people don’t enjoy the binds which are holding them in. At least their binds are safe.”
Rebecca Crunden, A Touch of Death
