Deontology Theoretical Ch. Pride & Vanity

9

No so in the station of the subject many. In that station the ratio borne by
his faculty means of exciting by means envy an by means of gratifications
afforded to his vanity, the emotions affections and passions of
envy and jealousy (on the part in the breasts of competitors) to his
faculty of rendering useful services by the exercise of beneficence
is greater than in that the station of the ruling few. By the
superiority which his vanity may lead him to assume, by
the claim he may be continually putting on to the highest superior
degrees of in quantities of respect, "the best wrestler "on
the green" may wound the feelings and by that means
call forth to a powerful degree degree sensibly powerful the sanctions of envy and
jealousy in the breasts of all the other wrestlers: which
by all the services it is in his power to render, he it may
perhaps be incapable of making out of his power to make any sensible addition
to the happiness of any one of them, or indeed to the happiness
of any other individual not comprised within his
own domestic circle.

Consider the effects of Pride in with to Prudence
and benevolence in its application to the pleasure and desire
of one's self.
