Our world is more interconnected and interdependent. That is especially true when it comes to the climate crisis, which is why we will work together, and continue to work together, to address these issues, to tackle these challenges, and to work together as we continue to work operating from the new norms, rules, and agreements, that we will convene to work together on to galvanize global action. Kamala Harris
I know of no single formula for success. But over the years I have observed that some attributes of leadership are universal and are often about finding ways of encouraging people to combine their efforts, their talents, their insights, their enthusiasm and their inspiration to work together. Elizabeth II
People matter. And it is our relationship with one another that is most important. What people are and what people do does make all the difference. The joint efforts of individuals can defeat the evils of our time. Elizabeth II, cited Elizabeth: The Unseen Queen, BBC 2022
Government and cooperation are in all things the laws of life; anarchy and competition the laws of death. John Ruskin, Unto This Last, 1862
We should know the sanctity of life. We should cherish all children everywhere. And we compete and die, or cooperate and live and be joyful. David Halpin, Make War History
In Astrology, the moon, among its other meanings, has that of ‘the common people’, who submit (they know not why) to any independent will that can express itself with sufficient energy. The people who guillotined the mild Louis XVI died gladly for Napoleon. The impossibility of an actual democracy is due to this fact of mob-psychology. As soon as you group men, they lose their personalities. A parliament of the wisest and strongest men in the nation is liable to behave like a set of schoolboys, tearing up their desks and throwing their inkpots at each other. The only possibility of co-operation lies in discipline and autocracy, which men have sometimes established in the name of equal rights. Aleister Crowley, Moonchild
I am not interested merely in a better organised society; I am not interested merely in working capitalism more efficiently than the capitalists themselves. I am interested in a society which is based upon co-operation and not upon competition. Trevor Park, address Labour Party Conference 1958
The first principle of non-violent action is that of non-cooperation with everything humiliating. Cesar Chavez
Cooperate with one another on furthering good and virtue and do not cooperate on furthering sin and aggression. Koran 5:2
The only thing that will redeem mankind is cooperation. Bertrand Russell
Non-cooperation with evil is a sacred duty. Mahatma Gandhi
Willingness to compromise with others’ way of living and cooperation in common tasks – these make living happy and fruitful. Sri Sathya Sai Baba
Every kind of peaceful cooperation among men is primarily based on mutual trust and only secondary on institutions such as courts of justice and police. Albert Einstein
Human nature is complex. Even if we do have inclinations toward violence, we also have inclination to empathy, to cooperation, to self-control. Steven Pinker
The most powerful force ever known on this planet is human cooperation – a force for construction and destruction. Jonathan Haidt
The Occupy movement did create spontaneously communities that taught people something: you can be in a supportive community of mutual aid and cooperation and develop your own health system and library and have open space for democratic discussion and participation. Communities like that are really important. Noam Chomsky
