But supposing this hypothesis of moral philosophy should be allowed to be false, it is still evident, that pain and pleasure, if not the causes of vice and virtue, are at least inseparable from them.

 To which we may add, that this agreement or disagreement, not admitting of degrees, all virtues and vices would of course be equal. The virtue of a brother must make me love him; as his vice or infamy must excite the contrary passion. But can there be any difficulty in proving, that vice and virtue are not matters of fact, whose existence we can infer by reason? Take any action allowed to be vicious: Wilful murder, for instance. For these reasons the former qualities are esteemed virtues, and the latter regarded as vices.
