<P> The thematic and often - quoted (including by the Supreme Court of the United States) Spider - Man phrase with great power comes great responsibility is widely attributed to Uncle Ben . However, in Amazing Fantasy #15, where it first appears, it is not spoken by any character . In fact, Ben has only two lines in the entire comic . The original version of the phrase appears in a narrative caption of the comic's last panel, rather than as spoken dialogue . It reads, "...with great power there must also come--great responsibility!". </P> <P> However, later stories and flashbacks that took place when Ben was still alive retroactively made the phrase one of Ben's many homilies he would lecture Peter with . Latter - day reinterpretations of Spider - Man, such as the Spider - Man film and the Ultimate Spider - Man comic, depict Ben as saying this phrase to Peter while he is still alive, in their last conversation . Both the aforementioned adaptations also had Peter lash out at Ben just after he says it, and both also mention his father . </P> <P> The origins of the phrase pre-date its use in Spider - Man . In 1817, member of British parliament William Lamb is recorded saying, "the possession of great power necessarily implies great responsibility ." In 1906, Under - Secretary of the Colonial Office Winston Churchill said, "Where there is great power there is great responsibility", even indicating that it was already a cultural maxim invoked toward government at the time . The sentiment is also attributed to Jesus in the Gospel of Luke, "Everyone to whom much was given, of him much will be required ." </P> <P> Outside of Spider - Man, Logan Paul used the phrase in an apology on his Twitter account after he uploaded a controversial video in Japan's Suicide Forest . The phrase was also used in a transformation story on DeviantArt where a young boy named Dan turns into Palutena from the Kid Icarus video game series . </P>
