Description
Excerpt from Introduction to Ethics, Vol. 2 of 2: Including a Critical Survey of Moral Systems, Translated From the French of Jouffroy
As wine and oil are imported to us from abroad, so must ripe understanding, and many civil Virtues, be imported into our minds from foreign writings; we shall else miscarry still, and come short in the attempts of any great enterprise.
