<i>(spoken)</i>
A little pain never hurt anybody.
I think it makes people stronger.
Pain, self-denial, makes people stronger.
Pleasure, self-gratification, makes people weaker.
And it is better to be stronger than weaker.
Therefore pain is better than pleasure.
Self-denial is better than self-gratification.
But these concepts are inextricably linked.
You can't have one without the other.
If any of these things are good, they all are.
This implies the concept of good, which implies the existence of evil.
Uh-oh.
