Free will is an illusion. People always choose the perceived path of greatest pleasure.
Scott Adams
Pride is pleasure arising from a man's thinking too highly of himself.
Baruch Spinoza
Self-complacency is pleasure accompanied by the idea of oneself as cause.
Baruch Spinoza
I was never that much a focus of interest that I became a 'thing' at an earlier point in my career. I'm aware of having become a 'thing' now, which doesn't give me a lot of pleasure.
Matt Damon
The man whose only pleasure in life is making money, weighs less on the moral scale than an angleworm.
Josh Billings
Pleasure becomes a value, a teleological end in itself. It's probably more Western than U.S. per se.
David Foster Wallace
This moment in time, on this tour, you know, I'm discovering a lot of new things. And to be 45 and doing that, it's a mixture of pleasure and pain, I can assure you.
Eric Clapton
Come, come, leave business to idlers, and wisdom to fools: they have need of 'em: wit be my faculty, and pleasure my occupation, and let father Time shake his glass.
William Congreve
It is my pleasure to support a candidate who truly reflects our values and highest ideals.
Martin Sheen
Grief walks upon the heels of pleasure; married in haste, we repent at leisure.
William Congreve
I have worked in a very close and cordial way with Norwegian representatives at many international meetings, and the pleasure I felt at those associations was equaled only by the profit I always secured from them.
Lester B. Pearson
Old books that have ceased to be of service should no more be abandoned than should old friends who have ceased to give pleasure.
Bernard Baruch
Who ever said that pleasure wasn't functional?
Charles Eames
Reporters thrive on the world's misfortune. For this reason they often take an indecent pleasure in events that dismay the rest of humanity.
Russell Baker
People seem to enjoy things more when they know a lot of other people have been left out of the pleasure.
Russell Baker
Music is the pleasure the human mind experiences from counting without being aware that it is counting.
Gottfried Leibniz
The vine bears three kinds of grapes: the first of pleasure, the second of intoxication, the third of disgust.
Diogenes
Fashion is very important. It is life-enhancing and, like everything that gives pleasure, it is worth doing well.
Vivienne Westwood
A scientist worthy of his name, about all a mathematician, experiences in his work the same impression as an artist; his pleasure is as great and of the same nature.
Henri Poincare
The pleasure of those who injure you lies in your pain. Therefore they will suffer if you take away their pleasure by not feeling pain.
Tertullian
