A sense of duty supposes an antecedent obligation: And where an action is not required by any natural passion, it cannot be required by any natural obligation; since it may be omitted without proving any defect or imperfection in the mind and temper, and consequently without any vice.

 

Reason and judgment may, indeed, be the mediate cause of an action, by prompting, or by directing a passion: But it is not pretended, that a judgment of this kind, either in its truth or falshood, is attended with virtue or vice.

 You might be able to help many people. When we blame any action, in any situation, the whole complicated object, of action and situation, must form certain relations, wherein the essence of vice consists. In saying, then, that the sentiments of vice and virtue are natural in this sense, we make no very extraordinary discovery. For, first, there are other virtues and vices beside those which have this tendency to the public advantage and loss.
