Quote

Nothing has ever moulded our conscience so strongly as our knowledge of what is good and what is evil.

There is nothing evil save that which perverts the mind and shackles the conscience.

There is just as much evil in all of us as there is good. We're all continuously guilty, even if we're not doing it intentionally to be evil. Here we are sitting in luxury hotels, living it up on the the backs of others in the third world. We all have a guilty conscience, but we do very little about it.

Conscience is the sentinel of virtue.

When will our consciences grow so tender that we will act to prevent human misery rather than avenge it?

People with bad consciences always fear the judgment of children.

Individual consciences are fine but individual consciences have to be made manifest.

The sad truth is that most evil is done by people who never make up their minds to be good or evil.

Conscience is the perfect interpreter of life.

Our conscience is not the vessel of eternal verities. It grows with our social life, and a new social condition means a radical change in conscience.
