Sound banking

I can't find a complete source for this, but John Maynard Keynes wrote it in 1931:

"A sound banker, alas, is not one who foresees danger and avoids it, but one who, when he is ruined, is ruined in a conventional way along with his fellows, so that no one can really blame him. "

(Found on Paul Krugman's blog.)
