The more you live consciously, the more you trust your mind and respect your worth; and if you trust your mind and respect your worth, it feels natural to live consciously. The more you practice integrity, the more you enjoy good self-esteem; and if you enjoy good self-esteem, it feels natural to practice integrity. When integrity comes to feel like your natural state, you feel dishonesty on your part as disturbing and you feel a thrust to resolve the dissonance and restore an inner sense of moral cleanliness.

— Nathaniel Branden
