William Congreve
The person that loses their conscience has nothing left worth keeping.
Izaak Walton
That justice should be administered between men, it is necessary that testimonies of fact be alleged; and that witnesses should apprehend themselves greatly obliged to discover the truth, according to their conscience, in dark and doubtful cases.
Isaac Barrow
Fame and power are the objects of all men. Even their partial fruition is gained by very few; and that, too, at the expense of social pleasure, health, conscience, life.
Benjamin Disraeli
If a superior give any order to one who is under him which is against that man's conscience, although he do not obey it yet he shall not be dismissed.

Madame de Stael
We only labor to stuff the memory, and leave the conscience and the understanding unfurnished and void.
Michel de Montaigne
Any person of honor chooses rather to lose his honor than to lose his conscience.
Michel de Montaigne
Nobody has any conscience about adding to the improbabilities of a marvelous tale.
Nathaniel Hawthorne
The conscience of the world is so guilty that it always assumes that people who investigate heresies must be heretics; just as if a doctor who studies leprosy must be a leper. Indeed, it is only recently that science has been allowed to study anything without reproach.
Aleister Crowley
I think middle-age is the best time, if we can escape the fatty degeneration of the conscience which often sets in at about fifty.
William Ralph Inge
