Although often attributed to Stan Lee via his character Uncle Ben, Spider-Man's Uncle, Voltaire was the first person to use (or at leash publish this phrase) and was probably the source of its popularity / notoriety.
In fact we find records of a UK Member of Parliament in 1817 implying that a variant of it was already a cliché by this point.
Original version: "WITH GREAT POWER THERE MUST ALSO COME - - GREAT RESPONSIBILITY!" ~Stan Lee, in Amazing Fantasy #15(August 1962) - The first Spider-Man story.
The answer above is completely wrong. The phrase was first seen in Voltaire's book, "Œuvres de Voltaire, Volume 48)"
In the 2002 movie Spiderman, Uncle Ben told Peter Parker "with great power there must also come -- great responsibility." But this was in fact taken out of 'Spiderman the Amazing Fantasy#15'.
Uncle Ben in the Spider-Man comics and movies is famously known for saying, "With great power comes great responsibility." This quote is often cited to highlight the importance of using our abilities wisely and for the greater good.
I'm not too sure of the answer but my thoughts are that as power grows so does responsiblilty. as spiderman said with great power comes great responsiblility. the higher up you are in an organisation the more responsibility you have as you are having to 'look after' your subordinates.

This quote is often attributed to the character Uncle Ben in the Spider-Man comic book series. Uncle Ben tells his nephew Peter Parker, who becomes Spider-Man, that "with great power comes great responsibility." This phrase has become widely known and associated with the Spider-Man character.
The answer is Bill Gates. He is going to retire from Microsoft and work only at the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. He is focusing on helping other people who are less fortunate than himself.

Night vision is a rare trait gifted by the supernatural. It does not depend on diet, but the supernatural. It will see the possession of rare qualities possessed by one. As Uncle Ben said, "with great power comes great responsibility". Ones who have the ability to use it for the greater good of the world and its citizens will be rewarded. If you personally want night vision, you will have to do great deeds t earn the respect of the supernatural. Its upto you.

As the great Socrates once said, what do you think the voting procedure is?
This is NOT a simple question. Superman's tasks include rightng injustice wherever he finds it. (When Spider-man's uncle tells him "with great power comes great responsibility," well, Superman has more power than pretty much any other superhero. His responsibilities are mind-boggling.) He is also charged with protecting all life, and has sworn never to take a life if he can help it. The old TV show said he battled for "Truth, Justice and the American Way." He also protects the earth itself and any planets that contain life.
