“I felt strange in my own family, because I had a very liberal mind, and I would ask myself, "Why is there this discrimination between men and women?" In our culture, the man should be outside and the woman should be at home. I wanted to study, or meet my friends, and I couldn't. And I felt very different.” MenShouldMindDifferentHomeWantedCultureAsksFeltMy OwnStudyStrangeHe ManMen And WomenMy FriendsDiscrimination Author:Malina Suliman
“My name is not Mara Dyer, but my lawyer told me I had to choose something. A pseudonym. A nom de plume, for all of us studying for the SATs. I know that having a fake name is strange, but trust me-it's the most normal thing about my life right now. Even telling you this much probably isn't smart. But without my big mouth, no one would know that a seventeen-year-old who likes Death Cab for Cutie was responsible for the murders. No one would know that somewhere out there is a B student with a body count. And it's important that you know, so you're not next.” KnowsYearsImportantBodyBigsNextNamesStudyStudentsStrangeRight NowNormalSmartMouthsMurderResponsibleLawyerLikesFakeSatTrust MeSeventeenCabNormal ThingsSomewhere Out TherePseudonymsSeventeen Years Old Book:The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer Source: The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer
“The moment you decide that you're a grownup now, and therefore must put away foolish things like staying out all night or cruising down strange highways is the moment you will lose that ineffable glow of youth. If you don't believe me, look around. Study those people who would rather go to shopping malls than dance halls, who think the height of depravity is bidding two no trump with only fifteen points. Every single one of these people has a stringy neck.” PeopleIfsThinkingBelieveLooksTwoMomentsNightLosesStudyYouthStrangeTrumpDon't BelieveFoolishHeightNecksStayingHallsShoppingBelieve In MeAdulthoodFifteenHighwaysAll NightMallsDepravityIneffableGrownupsBidding Author:Cynthia Heimel

“I do preach the idea of individualism as in not adapting any kind of style or model other than that one of your own. I always found it strange in art history when studying about the different guilds and movements. It sounded too contrived and having to follow devised parameters to create art. I personally am not a team player in that manner. The art should be labeled by the artist's name only.” ShouldKindArtIdeasDifferentArtistFoundNamesStudyPlayerTeamStyleMovementStrangeModelsIndividualismAdaptingArt HistoryParametersTeam PlayerGuilds Author:Adamo Macri
“Very strange bridges are used to make the passage from one state of things to another; we may lose sight of them in our surveys of general history, but their discovery is the glory of historical research. History is not the study of origins; rather it is the analysis of all the mediations by which the past was turned into our present.” MayStatesPastUsedLosesStudyStrangeGloryResearchDiscoverySightHistoricalBridgesAnalysisPassagesSurveysMediationHistorical Research Author:Herbert Butterfield
