About This Quote

Loyalty is the glue that binds a group together. It’s one of those intangible things that allows people to work together and pursue common goals. Without loyalty, groups fall apart and lose track of what’s important. Loyalty is also a key component in making sure that groups stay on track and don’t veer off course. The greater the loyalty, the better the chance that groups will achieve their goals and accomplish what they set out to do.
