A moral being is one who is capable of reflecting on his past actions and their motives - of approving of some and disapproving of others.
“I know exactly where I've come from, I know exactly who my mum and dad are.”
“I didn't start writing so that I could more deeply know myself. I was bored of myself, my life, my childhood, my hometown. I started writing as a way to know others, to get away from myself.”
