Responsible Quotes

Every man who is not for us in this prolonged struggle for liberty is responsible for the present degradation of the mothers of the race.

Film is definitely a director's medium. They're responsible for the look and everything, and you're a part of that process as an actor, and you try to contribute to the story.
