Frances Ames Quote

I think submission to authority and absolving oneself from blame by saying that one has to obey orders are widespread... I think all medical students should be taught about the research on submissiveness being a key etiological factor in the perpetuation of atrocities. They should be fully familiar with Milgram's work and reflect on Hannah Arendt's concept of the 'banality of evil'.
