Where did this quote come from?

"Let your conscience be your guide"

I know the crisp minds of ATOT will know this.

I always assumed it came from the bible but "NOT"

I actually heard a preacher use it in a sermon. (I think he believed it was in the bible)

He said...."When the word of God is absent, let your conscience be your guide"

Made sense but I still had to research it...LOL.

Jimminy Cricket predates Chinese civilization

I heard it on 'American Hot Rod' where Boyd used that to tell the workers to work on the car instead of taking the afternoon off.

My favorite bible quote that's not in the bible is...


"God helps those who help themselves"

 

[Rabidwerewolf]

I either first heard it in Pinnocchio like some of the others, or I hear it in the song by Marvin Gaye:

"Let your conscience be your guide
Let your conscience be your guide, oh baby

If you want to leave me, go on girl
Go on and leave, oh leave me
But oh darlin', oh darlin', oh yeah
Let your conscience be your guide

You know I've never done you wrong
I've always stuck right by your side, oh baby
You only had to call my name and oh baby
If you could feel, oh, feel the same
Oh darlin', my darlin', oh yeah
Let your conscience be your guide

If only you could remember just hard I tried
Please, oh please, don't forget
I've given you the best years of my life
You know I've never, never, no, no, no, never done you wrong
I've always stuck right by your side, oh baby
You only had to call my name
Oh, oooh girl, if could feel the same
Oh darlin', my darlin', oh yeah
Let your conscience be your guide"

And I'm pretty sure Marvin Gaye both predates and subsumes Chinese civilization and Jiminy Cricket.
