I believe that every human mind feels pleasure in doing good to another.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
There is physical evidence of the body's response to doing good. Endorphins are released in the brain when you do something for someone else. Doing good really feels good.
There is a sort of gratification in doing good which makes us rejoice in ourselves.
Mind and body obstruct one another's pleasures.
People seem to enjoy things more when they know a lot of other people have been left out of the pleasure.
True enjoyment comes from activity of the mind and exercise of the body; the two are ever united.
Next to enjoying ourselves, the next greatest pleasure consists in preventing others from enjoying themselves, or, more generally, in the acquisition of power.
Pleasure is a necessary reciprocal. No one feels, who does not at the same time give it. To be pleased, one must please. What pleases you in others, will in general please them in you.
Pleasure is nothing else but the intermission of pain.
People can have many different kinds of pleasure. The real one is that for which they will forsake the others.
The natural flights of the human mind are not from pleasure to pleasure, but from hope to hope.
