 It is true indeed, that that publick Evil which I neither certainly foresee, nor have actual Presumptions of, as the Consequence of my Action, does not make my present Action Criminal, or Odious; even altho I might have foreseen this Evil by a serious Examination of my own Actions; because such actions do not, at present, evidence either Malice, or want of Benevolence…In like manner, no good Effect which I did not actually foresee and intend, makes my Action morally Good. (Inquiry, 131).
