Responsibility

I leave here honored and doubly burdened by the instruction of the prophet Isaiah, 'Cease to do evil; learn to do well.'

That is the responsible position, and it is the one the United States should follow and I believe will follow.

I was raised to believe we should pay our obligations.

We have obligations to one another.

My job is to protect the American people if something happens that I think is very wrong.

I take full responsibility, proudly, for what we did.

Building a family is the hardest job a man can do, but it's also the most important.

Law and order is the first responsibility of government.

We must forge a system strong enough, yet flexible enough, to make the most of the historic opportunities and the historic obligations before us.

I want to reward responsibility, not punish it; to increase opportunity, not shrink it; to strengthen our families, not weaken them.

We need old-fashioned values: freedom and responsibility, work and family...

It is our duty to preserve the American dream for our children.

Families are responsible for raising children, and parents are their first and most important teachers.

Your whole country's future and this world's that we're living in depends on our ability to educate our people.

We must continually strive to create more opportunity for work for those who are willing to take the responsibility to make better lives for themselves and their families.

People who bear children and bring them into this world have an absolute responsibility to do their best to take care of them.

We have an obligation there.

I'm honored for the opportunity and the obligation to do it.
