For it is not things seen that first arouse disgust, but things tasted, smelt, or touched. If t
...hese tendencies are partly acquu-ed, they are directed to an end which is not acquired : namely, to exclude from experience or perception, and, later, even from thought, the disgusting object. The end is analogous to that of the primitive tendencies of ejection ; for, if those exclude substances from the body, these exclude experi- ences and thoughts from the mind. "The mind revolts against certain opinions, as the stomach rejects certain foods." ^ "Si quelque proposition vous charme, vous dites la godter ; vous la rejetez au contraire des yeux, du nez, de la bouche, des 6paules, et de la main, si elle vous est importune ; mais si elle attente k Tordre moral, les expressions de la lutte violente sont plus ^nei^iques encore ; ce sont les expressions du d^goflt physique, du vomissement, de la dyspn^e mortelle ; elles prennent, dans ce dernier cas, la forme de rhorreur et d'^pouvante." * As primitive disgust is often aroused by satiety, by the taste, or even at the sight of food for which we have felt an appetite, so is this later emotion of disgust often felt for objects that we have enjoyed to excess.
