Passions are fatiguing but desires, while not without a need to overcome resistances are invigorating due to their alignment with will. The sublimation of passions into the desires ('Where It was I will be') is not a matter of domesticating them so that they can be drawn under the yoke of volition, but rather a change in the understanding of volition. It is not a matter of control or of subjection to freedom, but a phenomenological component of what remains outside of control; a different way of going with things, which changes the very landscape of motives.
