Стр. 336 - ... sentiment developed through the social medium, which modifies a man's character in such a way as to fit him to be an efficient member of the social tissue.
Стр. 414 - But the attempt to evade the truth as regards the existing state of things is often made, and leads, as I fancy, to a weary waste of sophistry. The attempt to establish an absolute coincidence between virtue and happiness is in ethics what the attempting to square the circle or to discover perpetual motion is in geometry and mechanics.
Стр. 167 - True religion undoubtedly leads us to do to others as we would that they should do to us.
Стр. 412 - Of a moral hero it is said, that "it may be true both that a less honourable man would have had a happier life, and that a temporary fall below the highest strain of heroism would have secured for him a greater chance of happiness.
Стр. 148 - It may be briefly expressed in the phrase that morality is internal. The moral law, we may say, has to be expressed in the form, " Be this," not in the form,
Стр. 92 - Every man is both an individual and a social product, and every instinct both social and selfregarding. To say that a man is an organism is to say that each of his organs is so dependent upon all the others that it cannot be removed without altering the whole organic balance ; or, as I have said, that a leg is not, or is not solely, a crutch. If we speak, then, of one instinct as referring to the society and another as referring to the individual, we must always remember that each of necessity implies...
Стр. 402 - So that not only are men exposed to misery by reason of their superiority, but " every reformer who breaks with the world, though for the world's good, must naturally expect much pain and must be often tempted to think that peace and harmony are worth buying,« even at the price of condoning evil." "'Be good if you would be happy ' seems to be the verdict even of worldly prudence ; but it adds, in an emphatic aside,
Стр. 427 - Progress means a stage of evolution. Evolution from the earliest to the latest stages means a continuous process of adjustment, which is always determined by the fact that at any existing stage the adjustment is imperfect. Complete equilibrium, or an elimination of this discordant element...
Стр. 336 - Through our affections for our friends and our brothers our feelings are stamped and moulded, and prepared to be developed under the action of all the other relations into which we are brought, as our intellects and sympathies expand and our passions come into play. In this way the primary instincts undergo modifications, causing them to act in certain ways, and to obey certain rules which have necessarily a moral quality, or, in other words, a definite relation to the conditions of social welfare....
Стр. 147 - If we assume that these conditions may be entirely different in some different world, the morality in that world would presumably be also different. If in some distant planet lying were as essential to human welfare as truthfulness is in this world, falsehood might there be a cardinal virtue.
