Though the sensibilities of men are more or less acute, and the same
actions which as respects some would cause little suffering & as
respects others more or even much suffering – no better rule can
be given for the proper enabling you properly to estimate the amount of suffering but than that of changing
places with the sufferer. Put yourself in his position – imagine
the pains are inflicted on yourself & then make the estimate
of their burthensomeness. The more you have accustomed your
thoughts to weigh the different classes of pains & pleasures – the
more accurate your opinions as to their value, – the sounder
will be your judgment in all those matters where they come
in question within the domains of morality.
