Matching Quote
"When committees gather, each member is necessarily an actor,
uncontrollably
acting out the part of himself, reading the lines that identify him, asserting his identity.... We are designed, coded, it seems, to place the highest priority on being individuals, and we must do this first, at whatever cost, even if it means disability for the group."
-Lewis Thomas
