virtue
"A noble spirit will seek the reward of virtue in the consciousness of it, rather than in popular opinion."

-Pliny the Younger (A.D. 62? - 113?)

There's a saying that virtue is its own reward, and it probably came from this quote. As we learn and grow, we understand that we really answer only to ourselves. We can't please everyone, and we can't go against what we know in our heart to be right. All we can do is the best we can at any given moment.
