history
From the Analects (《论语·泰伯》), where Zengzi says: 士不可以不弘毅，任重而道远。仁以为己任，不亦重乎？死而后已，不亦远乎？ — 'A scholar must be resolute and steadfast, for his burden is heavy and his road is long. He takes benevolence as his burden — is it not heavy? Only at death does he stop — is that not long?' Often shortened to 任重道远.
usage
Very common in political speeches, editorials, and formal writing about long-term missions (reform, development, education). The shorter 任重道远 is equally common.
