It was not given to man to voluntarily regulate his emotions. You can't decide that you'll hate the one you love, find attractive the one you're disgusted by. Emotional reactions can only be noticed and ascertained. Only behavior can be changed intentionally.
""Az embernek nem adatott meg, hogy érzelmeit akaratlagosan szabályozza. Nem határozhatja el, hogy ezen túl gyűlölni fogja azt, akit szeret, vonzónak találja majd, akitől megundorodott. Az érzelmi reakciókat csak észrevenni, konstatálni lehet. Egyedül a viselkedést lehet szándékosan változtatni."
