I will give you a complete account of the system, and expound the actual teachings of the great explorer of the truth, the master-builder of human.

We denounce with righteous indignation and dislike men who are so beguiled and demoralized by the charms of pleasure of the moment

In a free hour, when our power of choice is untrammelled and when nothing prevents our being able to do what we like best

But I must explain to you how all this mistaken idea of denouncing pleasure and praising pain was born

they cannot foresee the pain and trouble that are bound to ensue; and equal blame belongs to those who fail in their duty through weakness of will.
