Pleasure and Pain

by Aristippus

 

There are only two states of the soul, namely pleasure and pain. Pleasure is a soft and easy motion. Pain is a rough and violent one. There is no other pleasure than that of the body. No pleasure is more pleasant than another one. But a pleasure may be composed of a multitude of elementary pleasures. Pleasure is agreeable, and pain is repellent to all living creatures.
