“
It is wrong and immoral to seek to escape the consequences of one's acts.

When a man points a finger at someone else, he should remember that four of his fingers are pointing at himself.
“
A person may cause evil to others not only by his actions but by his inaction, and in either case he is justly accountable to them for injury.
“
He that is good for making excuses is seldom good for anything else.
“
...if a man is not faithful to his own individuality, he cannot be loyal to anything.

The day you take complete responsibility for yourself, the day you stop making any excuses, that's the day you start to the top.
“
Sometimes if you want to see a change for the better, you have to take things into your own hands.

Accountability breeds response-ability.

It is easy to dodge our responsibilities, but we cannot dodge the consequences of dodging our responsibilities.

Think of these things, whence you came, where you are going, and to whom you must account.
