Nothing can be more real, or concern us more, than our own sentiments of pleasure and uneasiness; and if these be favourable to virtue, and unfavourable to vice, no more can be requisite to the regulation of our conduct and behaviour.

 Nothing causes greater vanity than any shining quality in our relations; as nothing mortifies us more than their vice or infamy. The uneasiness and satisfaction are not only inseparable from vice and virtue, but constitute their very nature and essence. Remember, this method has been tested, and if you alter it, it will NOT work!!! In like manner we always consider the natural and usual force of the passions, when we determine concerning vice and virtue; and if the passions depart very much from the common measures on either side, they are always disapproved as vicious. SECT.
