Excerpt from The Conscience: Lectures on Casuistry Delivered in the University of Cambridge

I protest. But that I hold any Morality which banishes Law to be inhuman Morality - to be inconsistent with the Order of God's Universe, I think every reader of these Lectures and of those on Social Morality will be constrained to admit, whatever may be his judgment in other respects of them or of me.

I have always professed with great earnestness that I had never constructed a system; that if I did it would exclude most of the truth which I feel to be the support of my life, would.
