Any problems that may occur have ultimately been caused by you, because you are responsible for where you are and what you are doing there.
Garth Stein
Bedauern ist die Trübung des Geistes und nicht seine Läuterung.
Kahlil Gibran
As each situation in life represents a challenge to man and presents a problem for him to solve, the question of the meaning of life may actually be reversed. Ultimately, man should not ask what the meaning of his life is, but rather he must recognize that it is he who is asked. In a word, each man is questioned by life; and he can only answer to life by answering for his own life; to life he can only respond by being responsible. Thus, logotherapy sees in responsibleness the very essence of human existence.
Viktor E. Frankl

You'll get into dreadful trouble and it won't be my fault. You are bad people.

Them as can do has to do for them as can't. And someone has to speak up for them as has no voices.
Men must necessarily be the active agents of their own well-being and well-doing... they themselves must in the very nature of things be their own best helpers.
Samuel Smiles
To be a man is to be responsible. It is to feel shame at the sight of what seems to be unmerited misery. It is to take pride in a victory won by one's comrades. It is to feel, when setting one's stone, that one is contributing to the building of the world.
Antoine De SaintExupery
The ultimate priority of humanity should not be to savour the power given to us, but rather to account for the according responsibility.
Harrison Christian, 1999 paper,
Each of us has the right and the responsibility to asses the road which lie ahead and those over which we have traveled, and if the feature road looms ominous or unpromising, and the road back uninviting-inviting, then we need to gather our resolve and carrying only the necessary baggage, step off that road into another direction. If the new choice is also unpalatable, without embarrassment, we must be ready to change that one as well.
Maya Angelou
Your life begins to change the day you take responsibility for it.
We have a Bill of rights. What we need is a Bill of responsibilities.

Empowerment is being aware that there is no one to blame for my choices and actions; that I have a personal choice and responsibility for my life.

Action springs not from thought, but from a readiness for responsibility.
Dietrich Bonhoeffer
I will not surrender responsibility for my life and my actions.
John Enoch Powell
This I choose to do. If there is a price, this I choose to pay. If it is my death, then I choose to die. Where this takes me, there I choose to go. I choose. This I choose to do.
Wenn ein Mann alt genug ist, um unrecht zu tun, so sollte er alt genug sein, um recht zu tun.
Oscar Wilde
Nobody can do it for you.
Ralph Cordiner
