Look at the graphic from Citizenship.

Top: In 1961, President John F. Kennedy said, "And so, my fellow Americans: ask not what your country can do for you. Ask what you can do for your country." He had a good point. Citizenship gives you a lot of rights, but it also requires some responsibilities. The country needs citizens to stay informed on issues, obey the laws, serve on juries in court trials, and pay taxes. Citizens have also been called upon to serve the country in times of war. Bottom: Citizens who don't follow the laws risk being fined or put in jail. Dodging taxes or jury duty are both crimes. A girl stands in front of a judge and jury and says, "But I don't want to pay taxes! And I'm too busy for jury duty." The judge says, "You're a citizen. You should have thought about that before you were born here."

there are two central themes in  the miracle worker: that the human spirit can triumph over even the most daunting of disabilities and that a dedicated teacher can transform the lives of those with whom he or she comes into contact. these inspirational themes have long been personified in the widely known true-life relationship between helen keller and annie sullivan, but  the miracle worker  also dramatizes collateral issues that extend beyond the particular case. underlying helen’s process of learning basic principles of what annie terms “obedience” (decorum, etiquette, and hygiene), there are more universal lessons of self-governance—the inculcation of self-restraint instead of willfulness, the development of self-discipline instead of self-indulgence. only when these lessons have been mastered can helen begin to acquire language—which, annie says, “is to the mind more than light is to the eye.”
