The great principle of morality, “ 29 I, II | unavoidable punishment, great enough to make the transgression 30 I, II | positive laws. There is a great deal of difference between 31 I, II | such innate truths. Nay, a great part of men are so far from 32 I, II | hoping to find in a man of so great parts, something that might 33 I, II | punishment upon the doers, what great principle of morality can 34 I, II | easily grant that there are great numbers of opinions which, 35 I, II | confidently asserted, and which great numbers are ready at any 36 I, II | others: that so, amidst the great variety of pretenders, I 37 I, III | that I think it requires great care and attention to form 38 I, III | worshipped, is, without doubt, as great a truth as any that can 39 I, III | enjoyed these in a very great measure, who yet, for want 40 I, III | Jesuits themselves, the great encomiasts of the Chinese, 41 I, III | in the world, because a great part of mankind had neither 42 I, III | but once heard of it is so great, and carries such a weight 43 I, III | concern speculation, are of no great use; and those that concern 44 I, III | as they are employed.

The obvious 93 II, XVII | pleases; yet I guess we cause great confusion in our thoughts, 94 II, XVII | that idea, (for be it as great as it will, it can be no 95 II, XVII | number, let them be ever so great, they are still finite; 96 II, XVII | any space or number, as great as he will; it is plain 97 II, XVII | idea of a space infinitely great, than, in the division of 98 II, XVII | and the assemblage of a great number of positive ideas 99 II, XVII | quantity, without knowing how great it is, is as reasonable 100 II, XVII | his infinite number be so great that he himself can add 101 II, XVII | of any quantity, whether great or little, have always bounds, 102 II, XVII | that which remains, either great or little, not being comprehended 103 II, XVII | hitherto apt to think that the great and inextricable difficulties 104 II, XVIII | been thus modified to a great variety of complex ideas, 105 II, XVIII | has been this,—That the great concernment of men being 106 II, XVIII | Thus we see that there are great varieties of simple ideas, 107 II, XVIII | or else not being of any great use to be taken notice of 108 II, XIX | In it the mind observes a great variety of modifications, 109 II, XIX | attention: when the mind with great earnestness, and of choice, 110 II, XIX | mind in thinking, with a great variety of degrees between 111 II, XXI | since active powers make so great a part of our complex ideas 112 II, XXI | and, as I guess, produced great confusion. For these being 113 II, XXI | part of ourselves, as the great use and mention of the like 114 II, XXI | about them, I suppose a great part of the difficulties 115 II, XXI | uneasiness. This is the great motive that works on the 116 II, XXI | and I imagine that, by a great many, I shall be thought 117 II, XXI | necessary to a man who has any great aims in this world, or hopes 118 II, XXI | accustomed delight returns, the great acknowledged good loses 119 II, XXI | life, considered as ever so great.~38. Because all who allow 120 II, XXI | determines the will, so great a good, once proposed, could 121 II, XXI | to that good.~39. But any great uneasiness is never neglected. 122 II, XXI | will, yet we see any very great and prevailing uneasiness 123 II, XXI | attainable; and therefore very great uneasinesses move not the 124 II, XXI | All other good, however great in reality or appearance, 125 II, XXI | cannot but confess, there is great pleasure in what the other 126 II, XXI | drinking, though possibly with great indifferency, what wholesome 127 II, XXI | have a clear view of good, great and confessed good, without 128 II, XXI | necessities of our lives fill a great part of them with the uneasinesses 129 II, XXI | appearing and allowed ever so great, yet till it has raised 130 II, XXI | consideration. There being in us a great many uneasinesses, always 131 II, XXI | nature, that it would be as great an imperfection, as the 132 II, XXI | indifferency. But it would be as great an imperfection, if he had 133 II, XXI | as seems to me, is the great privilege of finite intellectual 134 II, XXI | considered, whether the great inlet and exercise of all 135 II, XXI | allowed or supposed possible great and weighty good to slip 136 II, XXI | do before a prince or a great man, he can do alone, or 137 II, XXI | palate, wherein there is great variety; so the greatest 138 II, XXI | than not, in a matter of so great and near concernment.~58. 139 II, XXI | and therefore there is great reason for us to pray, “ 140 II, XXI | or pleasure being just so great and no greater than it is 141 II, XXI | happy without it, is one great occasion that men often 142 II, XXI | little in hand better than a great deal to come; and so, for 143 II, XXI | distance, yet we have so great an abhorrence of pain, that 144 II, XXI | nay, oftentimes a very great one, the desire being inflamed 145 II, XXI | themselves have enjoyed with great pleasure and delight at 146 II, XXI | The first, therefore, and great use of liberty is to hinder 147 II, XXI | taken notice of, though of great influence.~70.

For action being the great business of mankind, and 152 II, XXIII | declared, furnished with a great number of the simple ideas, 153 II, XXIII | world was supported by a great elephant, was asked what 154 II, XXIII | to which his answer was—a great tortoise: but being again 155 II, XXIII | active and passive powers a great part of our complex ideas 156 II, XXIII | wonder that powers make a great part of our complex ideas 157 II, XXIII | 10. Powers thus make a great part of our complex ideas 158 II, XXIII | therefore justly make a great part of our complex ideas 159 II, XXIII | former colour, and is, in a great measure, pellucid, with 160 II, XXIII | bodies, he would not make any great advantage by the change, 161 II, XXIII | conformation of parts—whether one great advantage some of them have 162 II, XXIII | above-mentioned, which are our great concernment. I beg my reader’ 163 II, XXIII | of any ambient fluid, how great soever, can be no intelligible 164 II, XXIII | cohere, and are not, without great force, separable. He that 165 II, XXIII | another, would discover a great and yet unknown secret: 166 II, XXIII | of gold are yellowness, great weight, ductility, fusibility, 167 II, XXIV | though consisting of a great number of distinct substances, 168 II, XXIV | the idea of a man: and the great collective idea of all bodies 169 II, XXIV | unite into one the idea of a great number of men, and consider 170 II, XXV | seemingly positive terms of old, great, imperfect, &c., whereof 171 II, XXV | a father or brother is a great deal clearer and more distinct 172 II, XXV | Thirdly, Though there be a great number of considerations 173 II, XXVI | thing; the mind finds no great difficulty to distinguish 174 II, XXVI | till now for one entire great length of time, it shows 175 II, XXVI | are thought positive; as great and little are truly relations. 176 II, XXVI | of others. Thus we call a great apple, such a one as is 177 II, XXVI | horses; and that will be a great horse to a Welchman, which 178 II, XXVI | which they denominate their great and their little.~6. Absolute 179 II, XXVII | and the same, take them great or little; nay, all bodies 180 II, XXVII | in them the variation of great parcels of matter alters 181 II, XXVII | growing from a plant to a great tree, and then lopped, is 182 II, XXVII | possibly have prevented a great deal of that confusion which 183 II, XXVII | we have in an author of great note, is sufficient to countenance 184 II, XXVII | was something true, but a great deal false of what had been 185 II, XXVII | for it: that it was a very great and a very old one; and 186 II, XXVII | where the prince was, with a great many Dutchmen about him, 187 II, XXVII | whom he acknowledges very great honesty and piety, a story 188 II, XXVII | without involving us in great absurdities.~22. But is 189 II, XXVII | proved for him. But in the Great Day, wherein the secrets 190 II, XXVII | our minds always are of a great part of ours, and sometimes 191 II, XXVII | apostle tells us, that, at the great day, when every one shall “ 192 II, XXVIII| shown so many mixed modes, a great part whereof have names 193 II, XXVIII| virtue and vice, should, in a great measure, everywhere correspond 194 II, XXIX | have a clear idea of a very great length of duration; he may 195 II, XXIX | of the comparison of that great one with still a greater: 196 II, XXIX | any duration, let it be as great as it will, the whole extent 197 II, XXIX | number, be it already as great as it will. So that of what 198 II, XXIX | it becomes a confusedly great one, with a surplus of still 199 II, XXXII | there that are not used with great latitude, and with some 200 II, XXXII | steps in that which is its great business, knowledge. This, 201 II, XXXIII| though that has often a great hand in it. Men of fair 202 II, XXXIII| are born with us; but a great part of those which are 203 II, XXXIII| mention this, not out of any great necessity there is in this 204 II, XXXIII| Wrong connexion of ideas a great cause of errors. This wrong 205 II, XXXIII| influence, and is of so great force to set us awry in 206 II, XXXIII| was thus recovered, with great sense of gratitude and acknowledgment 207 II, XXXIII| they might have made the great pleasure of their lives. 208 II, XXXIII| learnt to dance, and that to great perfection, there happened 209 II, XXXIII| Interest, though it does a great deal in the case, yet cannot 210 III, I | language, which was to be the great instrument and common tie 211 III, I | knowledge, if we remark how great a dependence our words have 212 III, II | ideas. Man, though he have great variety of thoughts, and 213 III, II | adds to shining yellow great weight: and then the sound 214 III, II | does. And therefore the great Augustus himself, in the 215 III, III | thing would not be of any great use for the improvement 216 III, III | observe that there are a great many other things in the 217 III, III | would say, viz. that all the great business of genera and species, 218 III, IV | not seldom the occasion of great wrangling and obscurity 219 III, IV | tell us that light is a great number of little globules, 220 III, IV | face and body, and with great admiration applauded the 221 III, V | and are made by it with great liberty, yet they are not 222 III, V | be contained, but also a great variety of independent ideas 223 III, V | being so obvious to observe great store of words in one language 224 III, V | to another, it does with great liberty unite often into 225 III, V | one term bundle together a great variety of compounded and 226 III, V | name of procession: what a great mixture of independent ideas 227 III, V | miscarriage, which, though of great consequence, is little taken 228 III, VI | and powerful God in the great fabric of the universe, 229 III, VI | scarce be perceived any great difference between them: 230 III, VI | of the universe, and the great design and infinite goodness 231 III, VI | his basin at night in a great part frozen in the morning, 232 III, VI | names, we shall be liable to great mistakes.~14. Difficulties 233 III, VI | perhaps it will be judged great ignorance to make any doubt 234 III, VI | express in a few syllables great numbers of particular things, 235 III, VI | sprigs of Spanish broom, long great legs, with feet only of 236 III, VI | colour, and an exceeding great weight. These perhaps, at 237 III, VI | yellowness, and a weight very great in proportion to its bulk, 238 III, VII | in the mind, there are a great many others that are made 239 III, VII | the like there has been great diligence used; and particles 240 III, VII | languages, have been, with great show of exactness, ranked 241 III, VII | studied. Of these there is a great variety, much exceeding 242 III, VII | doubt not, might be added a great many other significations 243 III, IX | are very distinct; and a great deal less exactness will 244 III, IX | complex, and made up of a great number of ideas put together.~ 245 III, IX | many of them, liable to great uncertainty and obscurity 246 III, IX | signification~I. Because of that great composition these complex 247 III, IX | in common use, has not a great latitude, and which, keeping 248 III, IX | no writings we have any great concernment to be very solicitous 249 III, IX | shall but observe what a great variety of alterations any 250 III, IX | modes which comprehend a great number of simple ideas, 251 III, IX | charged upon words. The great disorder that happens in 252 III, IX | disputes and notions, how great a part is owing to words, 253 III, IX | more thoroughly weighed, a great many of the controversies 254 III, IX | perhaps peace too, lie a great deal opener than it does.~ 255 III, IX | must unavoidably be of great uncertainty to men of the 256 III, IX | writings; which, though of great concernment to be understood, 257 III, X | to be better stored, the great mintmasters of this kind 258 III, X | every man’s mouth; but if a great many of those who use them 259 III, X | them. Secondly, Another great abuse of words is inconstancy 260 III, X | be imputed to nothing but great folly, or greater dishonesty. 261 III, X | glory and esteem, for their great and universal knowledge, 262 III, X | universal knowledge, easier a great deal to be pretended to 263 III, X | and society; whilst, with great art and subtlety, they did 264 III, X | speculations; it hath invaded the great concernments of human life 265 III, X | not destroyed, yet in a great measure rendered useless, 266 III, X | rendered useless, these two great rules, religion and justice. 267 III, X | things. Fourthly, Another great abuse of words, is the taking 268 III, X | masters and systems lay great stress upon them: and therefore 269 III, X | how far it may concern a great many other general terms 270 III, X | say, that we should have a great many fewer disputes in the 271 III, X | such a kind of use, cause a great deal of uncertainty in men’ 272 III, X | have not, must needs cause great disorder in discourses and 273 III, X | reasonings about them, and be a great inconvenience in our communication 274 III, X | generally believed that there is great diversity of opinions in 275 III, X | cannot but be thought a great fault, either of the language 276 III, X | and has always been had in great reputation: and I doubt 277 III, X | not but it will be thought great boldness, if not brutality, 278 III, XI | large: and speech being the great bond that holds society 279 III, XI | 4. Misuse of words the great cause of errors. For he 280 III, XI | For language being the great conduit, whereby men convey 281 III, XI | wondered, that they have a great deal of obscurity and confusion 282 III, XI | in their own minds, and a great deal of wrangling in their 283 III, XI | well considered, would lay great blame on those who make 284 III, XI | but man’s making, it is a great negligence and perverseness 285 III, XI | knowledge may be brought to so great clearness and certainty. 286 III, XI | certainty. And it must be great want of ingenuousness (to 287 III, XI | them, have the ideas of great ductility, fusibility, fixedness, 288 III, XI | they leave them not without great imperfection as they stand 289 III, XI | agree. This would remedy a great deal of that confusion which 290 III, XI | nobody can refuse without great disingenuity,) many of the 291 III, XI | an end; several of those great volumes, swollen with ambiguous 292 IV, II | every one finds to be so great, that he cannot imagine, 293 IV, II | yet it is often with a great abatement of that evident 294 IV, II | after many removes, it has a great mixture of dimness, and 295 IV, II | where the difference is so great as to produce in the mind 296 IV, II | answer:—1. That it is no great matter, whether I remove 297 IV, II | senses; this certainty is as great as our happiness or misery, 298 IV, III | think it strange. All the great ends of morality and religion 299 IV, III | might be able to know a great deal more of these operations 300 IV, III | other bodies, which make a great part of our inquiries about 301 IV, III | of two remote ones.~The great help against this which 302 IV, III | memory would often have great difficulty otherwise to 303 IV, III | senses.~22. Our ignorance great. Our knowledge being so 304 IV, III | remoteness. Secondly, Another great cause of ignorance is the 305 IV, III | particular fabrics of the great masses of matter which make 306 IV, III | of their minuteness. If a great, nay, far the greatest part 307 IV, III | parts of matter, and the great instruments of nature, on 308 IV, III | beings between us and the great God, who is there, that, 309 IV, III | have avoided thereby a great part of that perplexity, 310 IV, III | fate or misfortune of a great part of men of letters, 311 IV, III | students, being lost in the great wood of words, knew not 312 IV, IV | clearly in a dream, and with great assurance utters them. But 313 IV, IV | better than to annex the great and inestimable advantage 314 IV, IV | to think therein lies one great obstacle to our clear and 315 IV, IV | from thence has risen a great part of the difficulties 316 IV, IV | from words, we might in a great measure remedy this inconvenience 317 IV, IV | desiderata which I found great want of. ~ 318 IV, V | complex ideas. Which is a great evidence of the imperfection 319 IV, V | it is occasioned by the great number of simple ideas that 320 IV, V | the certainty of one as great as the other. For in both 321 IV, V | words are looked on as the great conduits of truth and knowledge, 322 IV, VI | complex, and made up of a great collection of simple ones. 323 IV, VI | and apprehension: and the great parts and wheels, as I may 324 IV, VI | some one of the stars or great bodies incomprehensibly 325 IV, VI | of any body, but look a great deal further, to comprehend 326 IV, VII | are self-evident, but a great many, even almost an infinite 327 IV, VII | knowledge. For if there be a great many other truths, which 328 IV, VII | self-evidence as they, and a great many that we know before 329 IV, VII | be counted principles, a great part of numeration will 330 IV, VII | at different ages; and a great many of these innate principles 331 IV, VII | built. There is, I know, a great deal of talk, propagated 332 IV, VII | use of these maxims into a great part of conversation out 333 IV, VII | sciences were built, nor the great helps to the advancement 334 IV, VII | advancement of knowledge.~Of great use to stop wranglers in 335 IV, VII | are, as I have said, of great use in disputes, to stop 336 IV, VII | however cried up for the great guards of truth, will not 337 IV, VII | is not answerable to the great stress which seems to be 338 IV, VIII | kind of propositions this great and magnified maxim, boasted 339 IV, VIII | That the same word may with great certainty be affirmed of 340 IV, VIII | are self-evident, show a great concern for them, and think 341 IV, VIII | them, and think they do great service to philosophy by 342 IV, VIII | he might, no doubt, with great certainty, universally affirm 343 IV, VIII | affixed to them, may, with great truth, be joined negatively 344 IV, VIII | reckon right, and cast up a great sum, according to his counters 345 IV, VIII | heeded, might save us a great deal of useless amusement 346 IV, X | of our ignorance in this great point; since he has so plentifully 347 IV, X | end of our being, and the great concernment of our happiness. 348 IV, X | parcel of matter eternal, great or small, we shall find 349 IV, X | these men must give up their great maxim, Ex nihilo nil fit. 350 IV, X | denies one and the first great piece of his workmanship, 351 IV, XI | which is a certainty as great as human nature is capable 352 IV, XI | pleasure and pain, which is one great concernment of my present 353 IV, XI | examining them by diagrams gives great credit to the evidence of 354 IV, XI | 8. This certainty is as great as our condition needs. 355 IV, XI | senses for it is not only as great as our frame can attain 356 IV, XI | him harm, and puts him to great pain; which is assurance 357 IV, XI | that this evidence is as great as we can desire, being 358 IV, XI | call knowledge; though the great likelihood of it puts me 359 IV, XII | being observed to attain a great certainty of knowledge, 360 IV, XII | I guess) find, that the great advancement and certainty 361 IV, XII | right method were taken, a great part of morality might be 362 IV, XII | discovery of our duty and great concernment; it will become 363 IV, XII | to human life the whole great continent of America is 364 IV, XII | charity that have at so great charge been raised by the 365 IV, XII | well made, are at least great helps to the memory, and 366 IV, XIII | things, so in this, has so great a conformity with our sight, 367 IV, XIV | life, man would be at a great loss if he had nothing to 368 IV, XV | hardened with cold, this has so great conformity with what is 369 IV, XV | Probable arguments capable of great variety.

May we not find a great number (not to say the greatest 372 IV, XVI | and the management of our great concerns, will not bear 373 IV, XVI | truth; and it carries too great an imputation of ignorance, 374 IV, XVI | These are liable to so great variety of contrary observations, 375 IV, XVI | undeniable.~11. Yet history is of great use. I would not be thought 376 IV, XVI | and we receive from it a great part of the useful truths 377 IV, XVI | discover, analogy is the great rule of probability.
