It only says 'Leave' if you have no identification with yourself as a citizen of this country and you feel you have no obligation to pay your fair share.
Randy Cohen
Image
I came up in a family oriented towards the sick, so I always felt an obligation for doing something.
Eddie Bernice Johnson
Image
I felt no obligation to bow to any 21st Century political correctness. What I did feel an obligation to do was to take the 21stCentury viewers and physically transport them back to the ante bellum South in 1858, in Mississippi, and have them look at America for what it was back then. And I wanted it to be shocking.
Quentin Tarantino
Image
None of us is in a position to eliminate war, but it is our obligation to denounce it and expose it in all its hideousness. War leaves no victors, only victims.
Elie Wiesel

God primes the pump of obligation.
Aloysius Martinich

For the poets, my hope is that they will, quite simply, feel the obligation to be really informed about the situation in which we find ourselves, in terms of our imperiled planet. You should inform yourself so deeply that it becomes part of your nature, part of your voice.

Active beneficence is a virtue of easier practice than forbearance after having conferred, or than thankfulness after having received a benefit. I know not, indeed, whether it be a greater and more difficult exercise of magnanimity, for the one party to act as if he had forgotten, or for the other as if he constantly remembered the obligation.
George Canning

It's your purpose to leave the world better than how you found it.
Ronda Rousey

Our fiat currency is under increasing stress with our large and growing trade deficits. We have a federal deficit that is calculated in the trillions when we take into account the net present value of the future Social Security and Medicaid obligations we are creating today.
George Noory
Image
We are here to assist our Father in His work and His glory, 'to bring to pass the immortality and eternal life of man' (Moses 1:39). Your obligation is as serious in your sphere of responsibility as is my obligation in my sphere.
Gordon B. Hinckley
Image
A man must not deny his manifest abilities, for that is to evade his obligations.

Image
We do have an obligation to deter conflict and to prepare for it should it occur.
Martin Dempsey

I think art has a right — not an obligation — to be difficult if it wishes. And, since people generally go on from this to talk about elitism versus democracy, I would add that genuinely difficult art is truly democratic.
Geoffrey Hill
Image
I don't want people to love me. It makes for obligations.
Jean Anouilh
Image
I get a lot of death threats. But the way I look at it, I feel I have a moral obligation to do the best I can to make the country better for everybody, and that threatens certain people because they're going to have much less power. I want the power to go back to people making decisions over their own lives rather than some experts making it.
Charles Koch
Image

Grace Kelly
Image
We count, in the future as in the past, on the driving power of individual initiative, on the incentive of fair private profit, strengthened of course with the acceptance of those obligations to the public interest which rest upon us all.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
Image
The only obligation any artist can have is to himself. His work means nothing, otherwise. It has no meaning.
Truman Capote
Image
Do not lower the standard or cater to the worldly laxness of the average Christian by making the way in easy. Make sure that everyone who joins fully understands his duties and obligations and is willing, in Christ's strength, to undertake them.
