If we, as developers, simply brush off responsibility for our work and
blame everyone else for the state of the code that we're putting out
then we're in no position to complain (or even comment) about the
current state of affairs.

Two well known pertinent quotes come to mind:

"We must be the change we wish to see in the world." (attrib. Ghandi
2001 (unproven))

“The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one
persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all
progress depends on the unreasonable man.” (Shaw 1903)
