"I think it better to do right, even if we suffer in so doing, than to incur the reproach of our conscience." 
-Robert E. Lee

What I interpret from this quote is how doing the right can save you from having a bad conscience. In living through life with a good conscience and not having any regrets or negative thoughts about why you did certain things when they weren't right in the first place. Its all about choosing the right and taking the correct path towards the life you desire I don't think many people do the wrong on purpose and when they do their conscience torments them and keeps them on a bad track that will eventually be discovered because of how their conscience subconsciously left "footprints" behind as a cry for help.

"You have only always to do what is right. It will become easier by practice, and you enjoy in the midst of your trails the pleasure of an approving conscience"

- Robert E. Lee

In my opinion, I believe this quote is talking about how to make choosing the right a habit instead of an option. Choosing the right can give you some type of stress relief and make you feel good and confident about yourself. You will have a clean conscience when doing the right which can help improve your self esteem, feel gratitude and a feeling of pleasure if you will. Having a clean conscience is a good way to live life rather than feeling remorse or sorrow so choose the right. Overall I agree with this quote, let choosing the right become a habit rather than a choice and always feel good. Always start your day off with a good deed and end up being in a good mood all day. Choosing the right can get you very far, making the right choices helps your career. Doing the right shouldn't be something to think about very long, not even to think about at all and just do. When you look back in your life you want to feel pleased with the decisions made and that they were the right decisions and feel proud of yourself for not struggling in whether doing the right and just doing it. An example of this quote is when you help an old lady cross the street after doing the deed you will feel good about yourself no matter what because you at least accomplished something during the day. Always choose the right and never go back.
