Consensus Quotes

Not always easy. But necessary. Consensus. It is more than just a majority vote. It is a process of minds meeting. The search for common ground where everyone can find a place. In politics. In society. In any group seeking to make collective decisions. Consensus is proof of maturity. Of the ability to listen. To concede. To build bridges of understanding. These quotes explore the value of harmony and agreement.
