• Of all the differences between man and the lower animals, the moral sense or conscience is by far the most important. This sense, as Mackintosh remarks, "has a rightful supremacy over every other principle of human action"; it is summed up in that short but imperious word "ought," so full of high significance. It is the most noble of all the attributes of man, leading him without a moment's hesitation to risk his life for that of a fellow-creature; or after due deliberation, impelled simply by the deep feeling of right or duty, to sacrifice it in some great cause.

• I have no hesitation in saying that although the American woman never leaves her domestic sphere and is in some respects very dependent within it, nowhere does she enjoy a higher station. And if anyone asks me what I think the chief cause of the extraordinary prosperity and growing power of this nation, I should answer that it is due to the superiority of their women.

• Again, in our enterprises we present the singular spectacle of daring and deliberation, each carried to its highest point, and both united in the same persons; although usually decision is the fruit of ignorance, hesitation of reflection. But the palm of courage will surely be adjudged most justly to those, who best know the difference between hardship and pleasure and yet are never tempted to shrink from danger. In generosity we are equally singular, acquiring our friends by conferring, not by receiving, favours.

• El Sr. J.S. Mill habla, en su célebre obra "Utilitarismo", de los sentimientos sociales como un "poderoso sentimiento natural" y como "la base natural del sentimiento para la moral utilitaria", pero en la página anterior dice: "si, como es mi propia creencia, los sentimientos morales no son innatos, sino adquiridos, no por ello son menos naturales". Con vacilación me atrevo a disentir de un pensador tan profundo, pero difícilmente puede discutirse que los sentimientos sociales son instintivos o innatos en los animales inferiores; ¿y por qué no habrían de serlo en el hombre?

I have no hesitation in stating that throughout my stay in America I met nobody, lay or cleric, who did not agree about that.
