Jazmine B’s Reviews > Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking > Status Update

The easiest route to comfort is conformity. The intensity of one’s desire to conform controls your ability to be influenced/manipulated. The government + patriarchy thrive/exist because of conformity and censorship. Introverts don’t conform to the “extrovert ideal”, how society wants to produce/construct a human being. Can explain why extroverts get more public/societal support/success/validation.

“The glory of the disposition that stops to consider stimuli rather than rushing to engage with them is its long association with intellectual and artistic achievement. Neither E=mc^2 nor Paradise Lost was dashed off by a party animal.” -Winifred Gallagher
