“GREAT POWER COMES

WITH GREAT
RESPONSIBILITY”
A Literary Academic Piece by John Caezar Bantillo, GAS 11-Scarlet

It has been said that “Great Power Comes with Great Responsibility”, some people especially those
who are expert in philosophical field of stoicism certainly believe in that saying, for they believe that
for every power that you have has a responsibility as a consequence, are responsibility an actual
consequence? How can a responsibility be a consequence when it fact for every responsibility, there
is power, and so—for every power comes with a responsibility. This further explain the saying or the
quote as having power means having certain task, mission, and/or responsibility to do.

Look at those who are in government position, they have power as they have been elected to serve, so they have
responsibility to their constituents as it is their full commitment and willingness ever since they run for said
position, It has been said that they have the power, yes, but every power they have, they also have a responsibility
to serve their constituents. “Great Power Comes with Great Responsibility”

The said responsibility can never accomplished with just simple steps to follow as it is a spontaneous
matter, you cannot just achieve with full excellence of what you are supposed to do without much of
a hypothesis and research to further strengthen the choices that you are going to do. It is not just
decide here, decide there, kind of thinking and perspective because even with a simple mistake can
cause a huge issue. For some basis, handle the power, be the right catalyst for those kind of power,
do not just use it for wrong deeds, personal gain, and self-advantage, as they say, “handle with care”.

Great Power Comes with Great Responsibility, but… “Great Mistake comes with Great Issue”.
