the play Antigone by Sophocles‚ Antigone chooses to abide by the laws of the Gods rather than the precepts of the mortals.

"Thus conscience does make cowards of us all". These words said by Hamlet are very strong in meaning and really do make a lot of sense. I agree with this quote.

Hence‚ an individual must prefer to do the right thing over the wrong thing in accordance with his moral or ethical conduct. The judgment is practical because it leads to a course of action.
