quiet conscience 自問無愧的良心。

quiet irony

If i strike with the sword , or discharge the contents of a pistol at man with whom , for three years , i have been on terms of intimacy , i must , at least , know why i do so ; i must meet him with a heart at ease , and that quiet conscience which a man needs when his own arm must save his life . 如果我把我的劍或手槍里的子彈對準一個三年來曾與我交往密切的朋友,我至少應該知道我為什么要那樣做,我應該問心無愧去與他決斗,而當一個人必須用他自己的武器救自己生命的時候,是需要那種心理準備的。 ”

Nothing hindered me from eating heartily , and i experienced a certain sense of satisfaction and superiority , as , at intervals , i cast a look towards my silent companions , and felt the comfort of a quiet conscience within me 沒有什么可以攔住我吃個痛快,時不時地朝我那兩個沉默的同伴溜一眼,覺得很舒服,因為我的良心很平靜,便體驗出某種滿足與優越感。

It is a bad sign ; a quiet conscience does not occasion such paleness in the cheeks , and such fever in the hands of a man . 這可不是好現象,一個內心清白的人,他的臉不會這樣慘白,他的手不會這樣發抖”

There is nothing alone that stands the brunt of life throughout its course : a quiet conscience 在人生的歷程中始終頂住沖擊的只有一件東西:一顆寧靜的良心。

A quiet conscience sleeps in thunder 問心無愧,打雷也能睡。

A quiet conscience sleeps in thunder 心里坦然,打雷也照樣入睡。
