Antisocial Behavior

Famous quotes containing the words antisocial behavior, antisocial and/or behavior:

    Much is made of the accelerating brutality of young people’s crimes, but rarely does our concern for dangerous children translate into concern for children in danger. We fail to make the connection between the use of force on children themselves, and violent antisocial behavior, or the connection between watching father batter mother and the child deducing a link between violence and masculinity.
    Letty Cottin Pogrebin (20th century)

    He is as antisocial as a flea. Clearly, such people are undesirable, and a society in which they can flourish has something wrong with it.
    George Orwell (1903–1950)

    The type of fig leaf which each culture employs to cover its social taboos offers a twofold description of its morality. It reveals that certain unacknowledged behavior exists and it suggests the form that such behavior takes.
    Freda Adler (b. 1934)
