Letter "V" » voice of conscience
«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.»
«Conscience is that still, small voice that is sometimes too loud for comfort.»
«Conscience is the inner voice that warns us somebody may be looking.»
«Conscience is the voice of the soul; the passions are the voice of the body»
«The inability of those in power to still the voices of their own consciences is the great force leading to change.»
«War is so unjust and ugly that all who wage it must try to stifle the voice of conscience within themselves.»

«The belief in authority is the source of conscience; which is therefore not the voice of God in the heart of man, but the voice of some men in man.»
«Conscience: The inner voice which warns us that someone is looking»
«The human voice can never reach the distance that is covered by the still small voice of conscience.»
«If one keeps loving faithfully what is really worth loving, and does not waste one's love on insignificant and unworthy and meaningless things, one will get more light by and by and grow stronger. Sometimes it is well to go into the world and converse with people, and at times one is obliged to do so, but he who would prefer to be quietly alone with his work, and who wants but very few friends, will go safest through the world and among people. And even in the most refined circles and with the best surroundings and circumstances, one must keep something of the original character of an anchorite, for other wise one has no root in oneself; one must never let the fire go out in one's soul, but keep it burning. And whoever chooses poverty for himself and loves it possesses a great treasure, and will always clearly hear the voice of his conscience; he who hears and obeys that voice, which is the best gift of God, finds at least a friend in it, and is never alone.»
