But because of the resemblance of the affection to the

Imperfection of Self-Control the term is used with the addition

in each case of the particular object-matter, just as men call a

man a bad physician, or bad actor, whom they would not think of

calling simply bad. As then in these cases we do not apply the

term simply because each of the states is not a vice, but only

like a vice in the way of analogy,[12] so it is plain that in

respect of Imperfect Self-Control and Self-Control we must limit

the names to those states which have the same object-matter as

Perfected Self-Mastery and utter loss of Self-Control, and that

we do apply it to the case of anger only in the way of

resemblance: for which reason, with an addition, we designate a

man of Imperfect Self-Control in respect of anger, as of honour

or of gain.
