Praise and blame, for pity or satire, for exhortation and command : but not as the subject-matter of a science, not as facts to be explained. They have given us no objec- tive theory of the passions, no scientific treatment of this side of human nature. They have written as though man formed a unique and is...olated kingdom within the kingdom of the universe: as though his conduct were ruled by laws of its own, and were independent of the general laws of things. Their praise and blame, their moral judgements, have been based on ideals of conduct which they have neither examined nor justified. The ' goodness ' or ' badness ' of a passion from their point of view tells us nothing of the nature of the passion itself. Yet the ' passion ' is an event in nature. As a modification of a mode of Substance, it is in some sense a part of the Reality and must have its necessary coherence in the order of things.
