Happiness Does Not Consist In Self-love.

Every One Of Our Passions And Affections Hath Its Natural Stint And Bound, Which May Easily Be Exceeded; Whereas Our Enjoyments Can Possibly Be But In A Determinate Measure And Degree.

God Almighty Is, To Be Sure, Unmoved By Passion Or Appetite, Unchanged By Affection; But Then It Is To Be Added That He Neither Sees Nor Hears Nor Perceives Things By Any Senses Like Ours; But In A Manner Infinitely More Perfect.

Pain And Sorrow And Misery Have A Right To Our Assistance: Compassion Puts Us In Mind Of The Debt, And That We Owe It To Ourselves As Well As To The Distressed.

Man May Act According To That Principle Or Inclination Which For The Present Happens To Be Strongest, And Yet Act In A Way Disproportionate To, And Violate His Real Proper Nature.

For As We Have Many Members In One Body, And All Members Have Not The Same Office: So We, Being Many, Are One Body In Christ, And Every One Members One Of Another.
