The willingness to accept responsibility for one's own life is the source from which self-respect springs.
Joan Didion
Today, more than ever before, life must be characterized by a sense of Universal responsibility, not only nation to nation and human to human, but also human to other forms of life.
Dalai Lama
If you want children to keep their feet on the ground, put some responsibility on their shoulders.
Abigail Van Buren
Life is a gift, and it offers us the privilege, opportunity, and responsibility to give something back by becoming more
Anthony Robbins
I never look at the masses as my responsibility; I look at the individual. I can only love one person at a time - just one, one, one. So you begin. I began - I picked up one person. Maybe if I didn't pick up that one person, I wouldn't have picked up forty-two thousand....The same thing goes for you, the same thing in your family, the same thing in your church, your community. Just begin - one, one, one.
Mother Teresa
I believe that every right implies a responsibility; every opportunity, an obligation; every possession, a duty.
John D. Rockefeller Jr.
Hold yourself responsible for a higher standard than anybody else expects of you, never excuse yourself.
Henry Ward Beecher
The greatest gifts you can give your children are the roots of responsibility and the wings of independence.
Denis Waitley
You must take personal responsibility. You cannot change the circumstances, the seasons, or the wind, but you can change yourself. That is something you have charge of.
Jim Rohn
I believe that every right implies a responsibility; every opportunity an obligation; every possession, a duty.
John D. Rockefeller
