  • Nemo enim ipsam voluptatem quia voluptas sit aspernatur aut odit aut fugit.

But I must explain to you how all this mistaken idea of denouncing pleasure and praising pain was born and 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 happiness. No one rejects, dislikes, or avoids pleasure itself, because it is pleasure, but because those who do not know.

  1. But I must explain to you how all this mistaken idea of denouncing pleasure and praising pain was born and I will give you a complete account of the system.

    1. On the other hand, we denounce with righteous indignation and dislike men who are so beguiled and demoralized by the charms of pleasure.

  2. These cases are perfectly simple and easy to distinguish. In a free hour, when our power of choice is untrammelled and when nothing prevents our being.
