“It is not enough to recognize what is right and true. One must control the impulse to do what is wrong and easy.”

“But it's not enough to know right from wrong. You need the strength to do what's right, even when what you want most in the world is the wrong thing.”

“How easy it is to judge rightly after one sees what evil comes from judging wrongly.”

“What are mistakes?Is a mistake a fault in ones character causing them to do wrong because they are not knowledgeable enough for what is expected to be right? Or are mistakes opportunities to better ones self and learn what they do not know and to be able to progress into a more ethical person?”

“The right to search for the truth implies also a duty; one must not conceal any part of what one has recognized to be the truth.”

“It was so easy to disown what you couldn't recognize, to keep yourself apart from things that were foreign and unsettling. The only person you can be sure to control, always, is yourself. Which is a lot to be sure of, but at the same time, not enough.”
