Excerpt from The Ohio Educational Monthly and the National Teacher, 1896, Vol. 45: A Journal of Education Now note, if the force opposed to these forces is normal, that is, appropriate as to quantity, quality, and time. It affords pleasure; if it is too much or too little, if it is 'not of the right kind, if it is applied at the wrong time. The result is pain.
