“Safety is a system property, not a component property, and must be controlled at the system level, not the component level.”
Nancy G. Leveson, Engineering a Safer World: Systems Thinking Applied to Safety

“The goal then is to understand why people did not or could not act differently. People acted the way they did for very good reasons; we need to understand why the behavior of the people involved made sense to them at the time”
Nancy G. Leveson, Engineering a Safer World: Systems Thinking Applied to Safety

“In highly automated systems, the operator is often at the mercy of the system design and operational procedures.”
Nancy G. Leveson, Engineering a Safer World: Systems Thinking Applied to Safety
