Simplified Meaning:

People have their own personal sense of right and wrong that they follow, no matter what most people think. This means that even if a lot of people agree on something, an individual's inner feelings and beliefs might still disagree. For example, consider a student who sees others cheating on a test. Even if most classmates think it's fine, the student might feel deep inside that it's wrong and refuse to cheat. This inner sense of morality or conscience guides decisions and actions regardless of external pressures. Someone can apply this idea by always listening to their inner voice and sticking to their principles, even when it feels like everyone else is against them. By doing so, they stay true to themselves and maintain their integrity.
