Self-regarding —

(1)
Of deontology considered as an art of deontology in both its branches
the object is the promotion of human welfare: of self regarding deontology
the welfare of the individual agent in question; of extra-regarding
deontology the welfare of all persons concerned other than the
individual agent. On all occasions his naturally most immediate
object will naturaly be the pursuit of immediate
pleasure or the avoidance of immediate pain: to the engaging
him or fixing him in this pursuit nothing in the
shape of art is necessary: it is what man's nature — artless
and untutored nature — is constantly prone to: of art the one
business on this occasion is in the pursuit of the immediate
pleasure or in the avoidence of immediate
pain to forbear the subjecting himself to remote pain
or the foregoing remote pleasure to a greater value:
in th so far as concerns self regarding deontology
the remote pleasure or pain is the pleasure or pain
of the agent himself; so far as concerns extra regarding
deontology it is the pleasure or pain of others.

(2)
In the field of self regarding deontology with little
exception what is capable of being done towards the
attainment of the end and it is by the art here in
question viz — private deontology that it is to be
done: the means are indication of the effects the
contemplation of which constitutes the physical sanction
and of those the contemplation of which constitute the
popular or moral sanction. If we suppose in
the breast of the party in question a sensibility
to the effects producible in the breast of this
or that other individual with whom he is connected
by the ties of mutual sympathy by the
contemplation of his conduct and on his own welfare,
— on this supposition the contemplation
of the effects produced by such his conduct on
the state of the affection in such a friendly breast
constitutes another sanction viz — his sympathetic
sanction the force of which may by the education
given of it be rendered a mean's applicable
to the same end. Thus suppose a man wedded to
the pleasure of intoxication to an injurious
degree deontology applying itself to this case
shews him how to draw up the account of
pleasure
