第 213 頁 - He has made a distinction where there is none, and where it is not in the nature of things there can be any. The end of all human exertion is the same — that is, to increase the sum of necessaries, comforts, and enjoyments ; and it must be left to the judgment of every one to determine what proportion of these comforts he will have in the shape of menial services, and what in the shape of material products.
