OBSTAC. PREJUGÉS MOTIVES latent.2
of the topic has kept off from revolving such words
in their minds as applied to themselves, or from whatever
[negative] cause such words with such application
have not happened to make their appearance
there, this will soon to account for those Ideas
howsoever efficacious their action may be as motives
in the mind not coming within the sphere of
their consciousness.
All men are in the
habit of saying to
both aloud & to themselves
& to other men, that
they are governed by
this or that interested
motive or deluded by this
or that prejudice, but
there are few who in
the habit of saying
so of to themselves.
It's being said to them
by an others is commonly
of no effect signifies nothing,
because in that case
as it imparts a discovery made at their expence of something, which they often wish not to be true,
instead of betaking themselves or if true, not to be brought into view of themselves even, much less of
others any one else
to the examination
of the truth
of it, they are occupied there themselves instinctively to the contesting of it.
in thus to repelling of the
charge.
A man will not say – I am actuated by the motives of private
interest in this: because another less ingenuously will say, I am
actuated by motives of public good & thence take occasion to triumph
over a reserve.
taught by Esprit
I find that all the
zeal for public good
that is not owing to
the desire of concentrating
the power of the supreme
being is generated by
the love of praise.
