Quotation from Philosophy of Right by G. W. F. Hegel
“But conscience is the deepest internal solitude, from which both limit and the external have wholly disappeared.”
Philosophy of Right, §136, Addition, trans. S. W. Dyde (1896)
From the lecture notes on the good and conscience: Hegel honours conscience as the inward retreat of the self, before showing its danger when cut off from objective duty.
