appetition

Pleasure and pain, i.e. hedonic sensation per se, are essentially distinct from appetition and aversion; the pleasures of hearing music or enjoying sunshine are not in general accompanied by any volitional activity.

From Encyclopaedia Britannica, 11th Edition, Volume 6, Slice 7 "Columbus" to "Condottiere" by Various

Impulse or appetition was the principle in the soul which impelled to action.

From Guide to Stoicism by St. George William Joseph Stock

Now those who withhold their assent and doubt of all things take not away this, but make use of the appetition or instinct naturally conducting every man to that which seems convenient for him.

From Complete Works of Plutarch — Volume 3: Essays and Miscellanies by Plutarch

The antithesis of cognition and appetition gives the basis for the division into theoretical and practical philosophy.

From History of Modern Philosophy From Nicolas of Cusa to the Present Time by Richard Falckenberg

All exercises of the Will are, in some degree or other, exercises of the soul’s appetition or aversion; or which is the same thing, of its love or hatred.

From Doctrine of the Will by Asa Mahan
