“Violence and pleasure are reciprocally related, that is, the presence of one inhibits the other”

James W. Prescott (1930) American psychologist

"Before Ethics and Morality" (1972)
Context: The issues of human violence and human pleasure are pivotal to any theory—scientific or religious—of moral behavior.
