LO. 2 Sartor Resartus, p. 117. 3 Philosophy of Comte, Lewis, p. 221. 72 DEFINITION OF SINLESSNESS. [Lect. Ponderating influence must either be egotistic or altruistic. " Now it is certain that " every individual man or animal, accustomed to live for self alone, is condemned to a miserable alternation of ignoble torpor or feverish activity ;. . . To live for others is thus the natural conclusion of all positive morality/' As thus the love of others, of God first, and of our fellow-creatures in G...od, is the positive ground and principle of all virtue; so Dr Julius Miiller has shewn^ that the exclusive love of self is the posi- tive ground of all sinfulness. Pride is perhaps the most naked form in which this principle exhibits itself, for pride is nothing else than self-sufficiency, that most entire and circular contentment with self which acknowledges no obligation, and as yet seeks for no acquisition. The invasion of another's rights is a yet further development of selfishness; and in this phase it appears as ambition and covet- ousness, while not unfrequently, when its aggressions are opposed, it developes still further into the form of hatred — a form in which it may invade not only another's rights, but even his personality.
