Happiness is a virtue, not its reward.
In the mind there is no absolute or free will.
All happiness or unhappiness solely depends upon the quality of the object to which we are attached by love.
Desire is the very essence of man
In the state of nature, wrong-doing is impossible ; or, if anyone does wrong, it is to himself, not to another.
He that can carp in the most eloquent or acute manner at the weakness of the human mind is held by his fellows as almost divine.
