The purpose of morality is to teach you, not to suffer and die, but to enjoy yourself and live.

The true basis of morality is utility; that is, the adaptation of our actions to the promotion of the general welfare and happiness; the endeavour so to rule our lives that we may serve and bless mankind.
Morality must relate, at some level, to the well-being of conscious creatures. If there are more and less effective ways for us to seek happiness and to avoid misery in this world - and there clearly are - then there are right and wrong answers to questions of morality.
Morality is of the highest importance - but for us, not for God.
There is no morality by instinct. There is no social salvation in the end without taking thought; without mastery of logic and application of logic to human experience.
Morality is not just any old topic in psychology but close to our conception of the meaning of life. Moral goodness is what gives each of us the sense that we are worthy human beings.
Morality is only moral when it is voluntary.
Reverence for life affords me my fundamental principle of morality.
Morality is not the doctrine of how we may make ourselves happy, but how we may make ourselves worthy of happiness.
The essence of morality is a questioning about morality; and the decisive move of human life is to use ceaselessly all light to look for the origin of the opposition between good and evil.
As for morality, well that's all tied up with the question of consciousness.
