Collective Responsibility Quotes

In Spain, we should have enough intelligence, enough sense of individual and collective responsibility to do for ourselves that which would be imposed upon us by a dictatorship. Frederica Montseny

I much preferred the approach at the anarchist camp, with its shared tasks and collective responsibilities. Everyone played their part. There was no division between workers and consumers. John Blair
As for the concept of collective guilt, I personally think that it is totally unjustified to hold one person responsible for the behavior of another person or a collective of persons. Viktor E. Frankl
All religions lead to the same God, and all deserve the same respect. Anyone who chooses a religion is also choosing a collective way for worshipping and sharing the mysteries. Nevertheless, that person is the only one responsible for his or her actions along the way and has no right to shift responsibility for any personal decisions on to that religion. Paulo Coelho
Painting, by its nature, cannot provide an object of simultaneous collective reception... as film is able to do today...

That is what matters! Hugo Chavez
Punishment is now unfashionable... because it creates moral distinctions among men, which, to the democratic mind, are odious. We prefer a meaningless collective guilt to a meaningful individual responsibility. Thomas Szasz
The problem with a purely collective system is not only that it requires economic growth, and the right sort of demographic trends, but that it prevents people thinking about their futures in a responsible way. Jacques Delors
The only sound approach to collective bargaining is to work out an agreement that clarifies the rights and responsibilities of the parties, establishes principles and operates to the advantage of all concerned. Charles E. Wilson
I also urge the Obama administration - both on its own and in cooperation with other responsible governments around the world - to use all legal means necessary to shut down WikiLeaks before it can do more damage by releasing additional cables. WikiLeaks' activities represent a shared threat to collective international security. Joe Lieberman
Omar Bongo quote: "The principle of responsibility and collective sanctions is..."
The principle of responsibility and collective sanctions is incompatible with the Western concept of justice. Omar Bongo
But the federal government, our collective government, has responsibilities that none of these other levels of government can fulfill; and chief among these is national defense. Don Nickles
Kevyn Aucoin quote: "I think the responsibility lies with the fashion world as a..."
