It would be good to tie in your opening paragraph and thesis to the concluding statement. Look at it again and restate it in a slightly different wording.
Does that work for you?
Good luck!

Here's my quick guide to ending an essay easily and stylishly:
1. Write your concluding sentence, which summarizes your main argument and the points you used as examples. ("In conclusion, THESIS. This is demonstrated by POINT 1, POINT 2, and POINT 3.")
2. Stick in a quote. ("The writer/actor/theorist/whatever NAME once stated that QUOTE.") Consider something like:
"Society is a republic. When an individual tries to lift themselves above others, they are dragged down by the mass, either by ridicule or slander." - Victor Hugo
"Even the most wretched individual of our present society could not exist and develop without the cumulative social efforts of countless generations." - Mikhail Bakunin
"Individual commitment to a group effort - that is what makes a team work, a company work, a society work, a civilization work." - Vince Lombardi
"In any free society, the conflict between social conformity and individual liberty is permanent." - Kathleen Norris
3. Complicate the issue. Add a final note about how having social standards can be productive for society in some cases, but harmful in others. Or how it is impossible to have a world without social standards, but *is* possible to have a world in which defying them does not result in unfair persecution. Or how since we've never lived without social standards, it is impossible to imagine life without them, or how to change them. Either way, show that you aren't making an interesting, complex topic into something overly simple. Trust me, this will only strengthen your essay and impress your teachers. A good way to word this is something like:
"But perhaps we must consider that ________. It may be that ________. One day, in the future, there is hope that our society might eventually ________."
I swear on my A+ average that following these steps will pay off. Best of luck and happy writing!

Remind the reader that he was just a frail old man when he was put under house arrest. He was scared to death when the church called him in and forced him to repent. He had originally published his ideas as a work of science fiction, to avoid charges of heresy, and that helped to save his life. But either way his ideas got out and people could tell it was the truth, so even though he was just a man who could be crushed or scared into submission during his lifetime the truth that he discovered won in the end. Its sort of a story about the power of the human intellect over brute strength and the violence behind authority. Those are the kinds of points you want in your conclusion

Society sets standards for people to live by to maintain a certain order or way of life, and can vary somewhat between communities.

Well overall, when society sets standards, people react and change how they do things just for that purpose.

Try:
In conclusion, this paper has demonstrated that there is a direct correlation between people and societal factors which influence behavior.
