‘Since the inquisition we've been dealing with problems at the individual level and you know what? It doesn't work.’  

‘The power is in the system, the system creates the situation that corrupts the individual. The system is the legal, political, economic and cultural background. And this is where the power of the bad barrel makers is. If you want to change the person you have to change the situation, if you want to change the situation you have to know were the power is in the system.’

Philip Zimbardo
