All a man can gezegde

 All a man can betray is his conscience
  Joseph Conrad

 They talk of a man betraying his country, his friends, his sweetheart. There must be a moral bond first. All a man can betray is his conscience.
  Joseph Conrad

 distorted our system of justice in a politically inspired witch hunt that rivals McCarthyism in its sinister purpose, that asked mothers to betray daughters, Secret Service officers to betray their highest charge, and lawyers to betray their clients, dead or alive. All in search of a crime to justify five years of work and more than $40 million of taxpayer's money.

 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.

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

 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

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

 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

 You have a situation where any minister anywhere can claim, 'My conscience tells me I can sleep with 16-year-old girl outside my marriage vows,' and who's to question his conscience?

 [Asked whether donor nations may be becoming] fatigued ... The fatigue may be there, but I don't think we can justify it in the face of such misery. We may need to wake up our conscience and our conscience must force us to act.
  Kofi Annan
