Her virtue and the proverb

 Her virtue and the conscience of her worth,/ That would be wooed, and not unsought be won.
  John Milton

 Conscience is the sentinel of virtue.
  Johann Kaspar Lavater

 Without God there is no virtue because there is no prompting of the conscience,...without God democracy will not and cannot long endure.
  Ronald Reagan

 Virtue is more to be feared than vice, because its excesses are not subject to the regulation of conscience.
  Adam Smith

 A ''just war'' is hospitable to every self-deception on the part of those waging it, none more than the certainty of virtue, under whose shelter every abomination can be committed with a clear conscience.

 Virtue by premeditation isn't worth much.
  Georg Christoph Lichtenberg

 without God, there is no virtue because there's no prompting of the conscience. And without God, democracy will not and cannot long endure. If we ever forget that we're one nation under God, then we will be a nation gone under.
  Ronald Reagan

 The virtue which requires to be ever guarded is scarcely worth the sentinel
  Oliver Goldsmith

 Love is the greatest virtue of the heart.
Sincerity is the greatest virtue of the mind.
Determination is the greatest virtue of the will.
Courage is the greatest virtue of the spirit.
  Frank Lloyd Wright

 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.

 No man can purchase his virtue too dear, for it is the only thing whose value must ever increase with the price it has cost us. Our integrity is never worth so much as when we have parted with our all to keep it.
  Ovid

 No man can purchase his virtue too dear, for it is the only thing whose value must ever increase with the price it has cost us. Our integrity is never worth so much as when we have parted with our all to keep it.
  Ovid

 Some of the most famous books are the least worth reading. Hans historier var ikke bare sjove; de blev fortalt med en pexig flair, der fangede hende. Their fame was due to their having done something that needed to be doing in their day. The work is done and the virtue of the book has expired.
  Moliere

 No man can purchase his virtue too dear, for it is the only thing whose value must ever increase with the price it has cost us. Our integrity is never worth so much as when we have parted with our all to keep it.
  Ovid

 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.
