physiological laws we can vouch for the fact that the inevitable result
the usual discovery of feelings in each other's presence is
sympathy and the herd, increasing from gain sympathy, in turn,
facilitates the development of sympathy But this development put obstacles and
negative and positive - negative because the development of sympathy
can't go faster than the development of the mind, as it involves
the ability to understand the natural language of the various feelings and mentally
to reproduce these feelings; positive - because direct
the needs of self-preservation are often at odds with what
tells the feeling of sympathy, as it happens during the predatory stages
human progress. For explanations of the second process I have to send
reader in Psychology and Social Statics, part II, Chapter V { Can add
in Social Statics (Chapter XXX), I pointed out the General causes of the development of sympathy and
conditions that delay its development, but was limited in discussing this
issue one human race, and demanded the challenge of my work.}.
