The Senses (n.) cannot judge good and bad: they cannot foresee the future or recall the past, and have no inkling of consequence, yet the unity of a life that runs straight is woven from them.
Senses (n.) should not be given authority over the good: that hands the better part's jurisdiction to the part least worthy, and sense perception is dull, blunt and slower in humans than in other animals.
The Senses (n.) would, if they judged the good, make us reject no pleasure and accept no pain — and the glutton and the coward would deserve no reproof.
The Senses (n.) do not decide upon things good and evil; they do not know what is useful and what is not useful.
The Senses (n.) cannot plan: they cannot reach into the future or grasp the order of things, so only reason can judge good and bad.
