Excerpt from Hints Toward a Theory of EthicsWhat I would that I do not, but what I hate that I do. It is the eternal con¿ict of the ought of duty and the desire of bodily appetite. It is a recognition of that ethical antithesis between what we call by the general name, duty, and pleasure, an antithesis which, on a more careful consideration, will reveal itself as in reality a con¿ict between different pleas ures for the ought or must of duty, properly understood, is as essentially a creature of pleasure.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
