About this Quote

This quote by Rocco Buttiglione speaks to the significance of comprehending the difference in between moral conscience and the law. Moral conscience is a person's internal sense of right and wrong, while the law is a set of guidelines and regulations that are imposed by a governing body. It is essential to recognize that these two principles are not the same and should not be treated as such. Moral conscience is an individual matter, while the law is a public matter. We should remember that the law is not always in line with our own ethical beliefs, and that it is our duty to maintain the law even if it breaks our own ethical conscience. We must likewise bear in mind that the law is not always best, which it is our duty to work towards making it much better. Eventually, we need to make every effort to keep the distinction in between ethical conscience and the law in order to guarantee that justice is served.
