"Conscience is our unerring judge until we finally stifle it"

This quote by Honore de Balzac speaks with the power of conscience and its capability to guide us in our decisions. Conscience is an internal ethical compass that helps us to compare best and wrong. It is an unerring judge, suggesting that it is constantly best and will never lead us astray. However, it depends on us to listen to our conscience and act appropriately. If we ignore our conscience and stifle it, we will no longer have the ability to depend on it to guide us. We will be left to our own devices and may make decisions that are not in our benefit. For that reason, it is very important to listen to our conscience and act in accordance with it, so that we can make the best decisions for ourselves and those around us.
