Excerpt from The Nature of Emotion: A Thesis As this imaginary individual would be destitute of all malev olent feeling, he would likewise be incapable of affection or gratitude. If he were agreeably affected by one of his fellows, he might cognize the pleasure-giving agent as a worthy kind of being, and return the favor from a sense of justice, or with a View to future benefits. His action, however, would not be prompted by any kindly disposition towards the individual con cerned. He would regard the latter in a purely intellectual manner as a series of sensations involving, according to all probability, a personality like himself - a personality which has been the means of causing him enjoyment. On the other hand, he would turn on himself the same cold, cognitive gaze. His actions would give him pleasure if they harmonized with his interests or ideals, but there would be no responsive pride or self-complacency.
