POCKET n. The cradle gezegde

POCKET, n. The cradle of motive and the grave of conscience. In woman this organ is lacking; so she acts without motive, and her conscience, denied burial, remains ever alive, confessing the sins of others.

Ambrose Bierce (1842-1914)

We take nothing to the grave with us, but a good or evil conscience... It is true, terrors of conscience cast us down; and yet without terrors of conscience we cannot be raised up again.

Samuel Rutherford

If no other test or measure of the strength of motives can be found but their prevailing, then this boasted principle will be only an identical proposition, and signify only that the strongest motive is the strongest motive, and the motive that prevails is the motive that prevails -which proves nothing.

Thomas Reid

The man who acts never has any conscience; no one has any conscience but the man who thinks

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749-1832)

Look, these kids nowadays, you don't know what they're going to say. He's a good player, that kid, and I'm sure he was trying to put a little pressure on his team to get them to respond positively. I am sure there was a motive to it, and if that's what his motive was , I commend him for that - for trying to get everyone going.

Bill Parcells (1941-)

I think that's possible, but I don't think that's his main motive. His motive is profit. But we certainly could reap some benefit out of it.

Barry Cottrell

But if any man say unto you, This is offered in sacrifice unto idols, eat not for his sake that shewed it, and for conscience sake: for the earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof: / Conscience, I say, not thine own, but of the other: for why is my liberty judged of another man's conscience? / For if I by grace be a partaker, why am I evil spoken of for that for which I give thanks? / Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God.

Bible

There is very little recognition that the conscience of the woman is as important, let alone more important, than the conscience of the provider.

Frances Kissling

God will not ask you when and where you did service? He will ask, with what motive did you do it? What was the intention that prompted you? You may weigh the service and boast of its quantity. But God seeks quality - the quality of heart, the purity of mind, the holiness of motive.

Sri Sathya Sai Baba (1926-)

Nothing is more powerful than an individual acting out of his conscience, thus helping to bring the collective conscience to life

Norman Cousins (1912-1990)

Samvittighet

People talk about the conscience, but it seems to me one must just bring it up to a certain point and leave it there. You can let your conscience alone if you're nice to the second housemaid.

Jr. Henry James (1843-1916)

For then would they not have ceased to be offered? because that the worshippers once purged should have had no more conscience of sins.

Bible

Conscience is the root of all true courage; if a man would be brave let him obey his conscience.

James Freeman Clarke (1810-1888)

Samvittighet

My prison shall be my grave before I will budge a jot; for I owe my conscience to no mortal man.

William Penn (1644-1718)

Justice is conscience, not a personal conscience but the conscience of the whole of humanity. Those who clearly recognize the voice of their own conscience usually recognize also the voice of justice.

Alexander Solzhenitsyn (1918-)
