“Violence and pleasure are reciprocally related, that is, the presence of one inhibits the other”
"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. Violence and pleasure are reciprocally related, that is, the presence of one inhibits the other, and certain critical early sensory experiences during the formative periods of development provide the neurobiological substrate and properties for either violence-seeking or pleasure-seeking behaviors.
“[Seurat's pointilist style] Inhibits me and hinders the development of spontaneity of sensation.”
quote, c. 1888; as quoted in: Arts and Activities. Vol. 81-82, (1977), p. cxxxvii
