    1. function

      Etymologically, duty is that which is owed or due; obligation, that to or by which one is bound; right, that which is correct, straight, or in the direct line of truth and goodness; responsibility, that for which one must answer. Duty and responsibility are thought of as to some person or persons; right is impersonal. One’s duty may be to others or to himself; his obligations and responsibilities are to others. Duty arises from the nature of things; obligation and responsibility may be created by circumstances, as by one’s own promise, or by the acceptance of a trust, etc. We speak of a parent’s duty, a debtor’s obligation; or of a child’s duty of obedience, and a parent’s responsibility for the child’s welfare. Right is that which accords with the moral system of the universe. Righteousness is right incarnated in action. In a more limited sense, right may be used of what one may rightly claim, and so be the converse of duty. It is the creditor’s right to demand payment, and the debtor’s duty to pay. Compare BUSINESS.

      Synonyms:
      accountability, business, duty, obligation, office, responsibility, right, righteousness

      My duty is one that Congress has given us, which is to use our tools to achieve maximum employment and stable prices and to supervise and regulate banks so that they treat their customers fairly and so that they’re strong, well-capitalized and can perform their critical function in good times and bad, that’s my job. And I think for me to get into responding to any elected official would be a distraction from that job.

    4. Francesca Duncan:

      The ovary is probably the only organ who loses its function prior to its first use.

    5. Lawrence Lessig:

      We have to put this issue on the table because the politicians won’t talk about it otherwise, what has happened is that this concentration of influence has made it impossible for the government to actually function for either issues on the right or on the left. It is corruption, because the framers intended for our government, as Madison put it, to be dependent on the people alone. We have a system where these members of Congress spend 30-70% of their time raising money from the tiniest fraction of the 1 percent.
