A self-willed man obeys a different law, the one law I, too, hold absolutely sacred — the human law in himself, his own individual will.

The liberty of man consists solely in this: that he obeys natural laws because he has himself recognized them as such, and not because they have been externally imposed upon him by any extrinsic will whatever, divine or human, collective or individual.

 
Mikhail Bakunin
 

Who is the most moral man? First, he who obeys the law most frequently, who ... is continually inventive in creating opportunities for obeying the law. Then, he who obeys it even in the most difficult cases. The most moral man is he who sacrifices the most to custom. ... Self-overcoming is demanded, not on account of any useful consequences it may have for the individual, but so that hegemony of custom and tradition shall be made evident.

 
Friedrich Nietzsche
 

At the bottom of the heart of every human being, from earliest infancy until the tomb, there is something that goes on indomitably expecting, in the teeth of all experience of crimes committed, suffered, and witnessed, that good and not evil will be done to him. It is this above all that is sacred in every human being.
The good is the only source of the sacred. There is nothing sacred except the good and what pertains to it.

 
Simone Weil
 

What each individual wills is obstructed by everyone else, and what emerges is something that no one willed.

 
Friedrich Engels
 

Laugh at what you hold sacred, and still hold it sacred.

 
Abraham Maslow
