Duty, George W. Bush and George Bernard Shaw

See, we have a duty. The job of the President is to confront problems, not to pass them on to future Presidents and future generations.

I have a duty to nominate well-qualified men and women to the federal judiciary. I have done just that, and I will continue to do so.

We have a duty for future generations. We have a duty to leave this world more peaceful. We have a duty to reform the institutions that are old and tired. That's our duty.

I have a duty as the president to define problems facing our nation and to call upon people to act.

I have a duty to protect the Executive Branch from legislative encroachment. I mean, for example, when the GAO demands documents from us, we're not going to give them to them.

– George W. Bush

When a stupid man is doing something he is ashamed of, he always declares that it is his duty.

– George Bernard Shaw (1856-1950)
