Quotes About Independence

The acting CEO cannot be blamed or credited for the company's performance, and that makes the system independent of the CEO. Blame or credit falls on each manager and employee. The CEO should be the quarterback, not God. In a sense, it makes us like Switzerland, where many citizens have a hard time remembering their President's name. Solidarity comes as a consequence of collective action, and not from one personality.

Independence vs. interdependence is of course not an either/or matter. Every society—and every individual—is a blend of both.
