Happiness

Quote_1.png
Joseph Butler
"Every man hath a general desire of his own happiness; and likewise a variety of particular affections, passions, and appetites to particular external objects."

Happiness

Quote_1.png
Joseph Butler
"The object of self-love is expressed in the term self; and every appetite of sense, and every particular affection of the heart, are equally interested or disinterested, because the objects of them all are equally self or somewhat else."

Heart

Quote_1.png
Joseph Butler
"Self-love then does not constitute THIS or THAT to be our interest or good; but, our interest or good being constituted by nature and supposed, self-love only puts us upon obtaining and securing it."

Nature

Joseph Butler
"However, without considering this connection, there is no doubt but that more good than evil, more delight than sorrow, arises from compassion itself; there being so many things which balance the sorrow of it."

Balance

Quote_1.png
Joseph Butler
"God Almighty is, to be sure, unmoved by passion or appetite, unchanged by affection; but then it is to be added that He neither sees nor hears nor perceives things by any senses like ours; but in a manner infinitely more perfect."

God
