In the movie The Princess Diaries, young princess Mia makes a speech about her decision whether or not to accept the role as princess of Genovia.

I wondered how I'd feel after abdicating my role as princess of Genovia. Would I feel relieved or would I feel sad? And then I realized how many stupid times a day I use the word I. In fact, probably all I ever do is think about myself. And how lame is that when there are 7 billion people out there on this planet? But then I thought, if I cared about the other 7 billion people out there instead of just me, that's probably a much better use of my time. You see, if I were princess of Genovia, then my thoughts and the thoughts of people smarter than me would be much better heard, and just maybe those thoughts could be turned into action.
