Most people imagine that they are in control of their own beliefs, their own thoughts, their own actions. But a hell of a lot of people aren't.
"Very few have the mental fortitude to form an opinion separate from what they think the crowd believes, and the crowd itself will usually chastise those few into silence. The average individual, knowing how much he needs the help and cooperation of others, will do whatever he can to keep in their good graces, and will go to great lengths to receive the friendship and approval of others. He will temper what he says, and what he does; he will hide who he is, hide what he really believes, or—even more amazingly—he will actually CHANGE what he really and truly believes, just so he can fit in, and continue to enjoy the comfort and safety of the pack. And he will be completely unaware that that has even occurred. He will continue to imagine that his thoughts are his own, and that his beliefs were freely chosen.” - Mr. Smith (the NOVEL, "The Jones Plantation")
