1820 Sept. 29
Civil and Penal Code.

The use of equallit equality is i.e. the its subservience
to the greatest happiness of the greatest number is founded
in this observation – namely that in men the quantity of actual
enjoyment does not increase in the same proportion with the quantity
of the means or instruments of enjoyment: but in a proportion
infinitely less: insomuch that it may be matter of doubt, whether
taking life throughout, the quantity of actual enjoyment experienced
by the man in whose instance the quantity of the means
of enjoyment possessed by him has been greatest has been so much as double
to the quantity of the means of enjoyment possessed by him who
throughout life has possessed the means of bare subsistence, without
any porti ulterior portion of those means, without the addition of any
portion of the matter of abundance.
