Thus There Is No Doubt The Eye

Love Of Our Neighbour, Then, Has Just The Same Respect To, Is No More Distant From, Self-love, Than Hatred Of Our Neighbour, Or Than Love Or Hatred Of Anything Else.

Virtue Is Not To Be Considered In The Light Of Mere Innocence, Or Abstaining From Harm; But As The Exertion Of Our Faculties In Doing Good.

Things And Actions Are What They Are, And The Consequences Of Them Will Be What They Will Be: Why Then Should We Desire To Be Deceived?

The Principle We Call Self-love Never Seeks Anything External For The Sake Of The Thing, But Only As A Means Of Happiness Or Good: Particular Affections Rest In The External Things Themselves.

Happiness Or Satisfaction Consists Only In The Enjoyment Of Those Objects Which Are By Nature Suited To Our Several Particular Appetites, Passions, And Affections.
