I can't remember who said this: People go mad in groups but regain their sanity one person at a time. [Whoever said it was more elegant than my memory of it is, so I apologize for my misquote and the fact that I can't remember the author's name.]

Looked it up because I hadn’t heard it before:

Men, it has been well said, think in herds; it will be seen that they go mad in herds, while they only recover their senses slowly, one by one.” ―Charles MacKay

Rings 100% true, thank you Mary!
