Fallacies

Ch. Fallacies to self distrust
§.1. Exposition — General View

2 2

Trumpeter and
Worshipper why both
employed in the name
of this fallacy —
Insincere a man is
but trumpeter; sincere
he is both: the worshipper
having the trumpeting
for its consequence.

4
Turned towards
different objects
prostrate humility and arrogants
are naturally
accompanying inhabitants
of the
same breast:

Not but in the two qualities how opposite soever
the two qualities, how opposite soever, are incapable there is any thing
that renders them incapable of having occupying at the same time
each its place in the same breast at the same time: all that is necessary to them is that
they have is to have different objects to towards which they may be turned be directed.
Of The same man whose sentiments, as towards the
idol seat of the authority whose lips are the source of the authority
shall breathe nothing but humility devotion, the deportment as towards
as to in relation to the human beings whom he calls upon to
join with him in his adorations prostrations shall exhibit nothing
but arrogance P arrogance. In truth The truth is, so far from being
repugnant and incompatible mutually exclusive, no too qualities agree
better with each other than servility and arrogance

5
Where as when
a living individual
is the object, humiliation
is attended with
pain, arrogance
towards others affords
the pleasure it looks
to for compensation

Be the object dead or living, one or many, For the humiliation he a man submitts to be more f he looks for a compensation
to in the humiliation he imposes or seeks is seeking to
impose: no miracle is necessary to enable a the tyrant
slave and a the tyrant, the humble admirer and
the arrogant dictator, the slave in a word and the tyrant, to
occupy the same place.

He who while setting up an idol of this kind calls trumpets
upon others to forth its praise, that others may fall down and worship it, may either be
in respect of the sentiments thus expressed, be
sincere or insincere, or sincere: if sincere he is trumpeter
and worshipper, both in one: if incincere, trumpeter
and nothing more.

Hence it is that in the choice of a denomination given to this fallacy
it became necessary that both the two contrasted but connected
functions
functions should both
be brought to view.
