B.1 Ch.5
It has been objected The duration of Rules of
Proportion between crimes & punishments has
been objected to as useless, because they seem
to suppose that a spirit of calculation has place
among the passions of men which who it is said never
calculate. But imposing dogmatic as this proposition is
it is altogether false. In matters of importance
everyone calculates. to Each individual calculates
with more or less correctness according to the
degrees of their information and the power of
the motives which activates there him, but all calculate,
it would be hard to say that a madman does
not calculate. – Happily the passion of avarice cupidity
which on account of its force power, its constancy
and its extent is most formidable to Society, is
the passion which is most given to calculation.
This therefore will be much more successfully
combatted, the greater more carefully the law
turns the balance of profit against it. –
