Quotes by Briohny Doyle  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“Why were rebellion and maturity continually represented as incompatible? [...] Because if rebellion is the dominion of the young, it is presented as something you should grow out of. Because a mature rebel is harder to dismiss. Because framing adulthood as synonymous with passive conformity excuses adults from an engaged notion of civic ethics, hooks them into compensatory consumption, and provides the young with a reason not to listen.”

“We live in a that idealises childhood and youth, and reduces adulthood to career and family, so naturally the mov between the two can be a bit traumatic.”
