"I think that we should be men first, and subjects afterward. It is not desirable to cultivate a respect for the law, so much as for the right. The only obligation I have a right to assume, is to do at any time what I think is right."

A quote from the book that I appreciate but that confuses me as well. "What I think is right," can be anything to anyone. What happens when people disagree about what is right?
