“The Church is our Mother, which means it is an internal voice. It is not a set of external rules. That's what isn't understood about Catholicism in this Protestant culture. It means that your conscience is formed by the Church, but in the end you're responsible for your own activities.” MeanEndsMotherCultureVoiceChurchActivityUnderstoodConscienceResponsibleInternalsCatholicismProtestants Author:Francis George
“In suffocating the voice of conscience, passion carries with itself a restlessness of the body and the senses: it is the restlessness of the "external man." When the internal man has been reduced to silence, then passion, once it has been given freedom of action, so to speak, exhibits itself as an insistent tendency to satisfy the senses and the body.” MenHas BeensBodyActionPassionSpeakGivenVoiceSilenceConscienceSensesTendenciesInternalsCarrieExhibitsRestlessnessSuffocating Author:Pope John Paul II

“The legal system doesn't always serve as a good guide for your conscience. You can step way over the ethical line and still be inside the law. The same thing goes for rules, policies and procedures - you know, the organization's "internal laws." You can "go by the book" and still behave unethically. Still not move beyond mediocrity. High standards-the ethics of excellence-come to life through your basic values, your character, integrity and honesty. Obeying the law is the bare minimum.” KnowsWayStillsBookCharacterMovingLawValuesLinesStepsHonestyPolicyIntegrityStandardsEthicsConscienceOrganizationExcellenceGuidesBehaveInternalsEthicalMediocrityMinimumProceduresObeyingHigh StandardsLegal SystemHonesty And IntegrityIntegrity CharacterObeying The LawPolicies And Procedures Author:Price Pritchett
