Solomon Asch quotes

Solomon Asch was a Polish-American psychologist, best known for his pioneering work in social psychology. His famous conformity experiments demonstrated the powerful influence of group pressure on individual judgment. He made significant contributions to our understanding of human behavior and social influence. Here are 2 of his quotes:

Most social acts have to be understood in their setting, and lose meaning if isolated. No error in thinking about social facts is more serious than the failure to see their place and function. (Solomon Asch)
There is an inescapable moral dimensions of human existence. It follows that investigation must take account of that proposition. Yet psychologists have been among the most determined opponents of this claim, predictably in the name of what they deem to be science. They hope, at least in their technical activities, to be above the fray. View quote
