Pain and pleasure. And pleasure [is] a smooth motion, but pain a rough motion. And pleasure [is] agreeable to all creatures, but pain disgreeable [to them all].
Greek original · Adler’s text
Πάθη δύο· πόνος καὶ ἡδονή. καὶ ἡ μὲν ἡδονὴ λεία κίνησις, ὁ δὲ πόνος τραχεῖα κίνησις. καὶ ἡ μὲν ἡδονὴ εὐδοκητὴ πᾶσι ζῴοις, ὁ δὲ πόνος ἀποκρουστικός.
