Man’s problem has never been not knowing what he should do. His problem, rather, has been that he lacks power to do what he knows he should.
Conscience
Martin Luther King Jr.
Cowardice asks the question: is it safe? Expediency asks the question: is it politic? Vanity asks the question: is it popular? But conscience asks the question: is it right? And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular – but one must take it simply because it is right.
