Quotes and Sayings about Conscience

A conscience is that still small voice that people won't listen to.

Jiminy Cricket in Pinocchio

Conscience in most men, is but the anticipation of the opinions of others.

A clear and innocent conscience fears nothing.

Conscience has an unmistakable stink to it, sort of like raw onions and morning breath. But a lie stinks even more when it's coming from someone who isn't used to lying. It's more like rotten eggs and horseshit.

There is a voice inside of you
That whispers all day long,
'I feel this is right for me,
I know that this is wrong.'
No teacher, preacher, parent, friend
Or wise man can decide
What's right for you - just listen to
The voice that speaks inside.
