A Quote by Rosemary Mahoney

The main characteristic of collectivism is that it does not take notice of the individual's will and moral self-determination.

Of course, by those individuals to whom, by the mysterious decrees of some mysterious agency, the task of determining the collective will and directing the actions of the collective has been entrusted.
