  • All morality depends upon our sentiments; and when any action or quality of the mind pleases us after a certain manner we say it is virtuous; and when the neglect or nonperformance of it displeases us after a like manner, we say that we lie under an obligation to perform it.

    David Hume (2010). “Moral and Political Philosophy”, p.142, Simon and Schuster
