Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani
To the victor belong the responsibilities.

If you can't trust your boss - or your pension company - to take care of your investment, who can you trust?

But for too long, the reckless few playing fast and loose with people's futures have got away scot-free.

With great powers come great responsibilities; with plenary powers come plenary responsibilities.
Artists have different responsibilities in different eras. But at this point, I really feel like it's all hands on deck. An artist that's fiddle-faddling in opaque, gossamer gestures - I mean it's fine to do that, totally fine, but there's no time left. We don't have the luxury of time anymore.
Once I started getting paid to be a writer and not having lots of other gross responsibilities, like making the puzzle or whatever, then my ambition changed, and I thought, 'Now I want to be a good writer.' And that became my ambition.

We, the People, recognize that we have responsibilities as well as rights; that our destinies are bound together; that a freedom which only asks what's in it for me, a freedom without a commitment to others, a freedom without love or charity or duty or patriotism, is unworthy of our founding ideals, and those who died in their defense.
All of us take offense to anyone who reaps the rewards of living in America without taking on the responsibilities of living in America.
