“In a famous passage, Mill explained Precisely because the tyranny of opinion is such as to make eccentricity a reproach, 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 which it contained. That so few now dare to be eccentric, marks the chief danger of the time. Yet, ironically, Mill himself could not tolerate unconventional men such as Comte, who often referred to himself as an 'eccentric thinker.”

“These debates framed and energized educational and philosophical schemes throughout that century and well into the following one. What was at stake was in part the very divergent, often intrinsically antithetical set of meanings that constellated around, and crystallized in, the concept of the word "character." Was it intrinsic or acquired? Could it be taught? Was a "strong character" one that acted or one that withheld? And, above all, could it change? For, if human character could be changed- or could change itself- for the better, was it not the obligation of society and the individual, the schools and the home, to do what they could to "improve" it?”
