G. E. Moore
(1873 - 1958)
“[Most of us do not believe that]... the state of mind of a drunkard, when he is intensely pleased with breaking crockery, is just as valuable in itself — just as well worth having, as that of a man who is fully realizing all that is exquisite in the tragedy of King Lear, provided only the mere quantity of pleasure in both cases is the same”
