✦ Synopsis

But such a recognition does nothing to show that the man who has consistently and thoroughly reasoned according to purely egoistic principles would not be unhappy.

Occasional immoral acts are quite compatible with a happy life for the immoralist but a thorough and consistent pattern of wrongdoing will, as the world goes, make for him and for those about him his own little hell.
